My Newest Book Has Launched!
Today, I launched my newest book An Encounter With Cows, and I am celebrating with Giveaways of both these and another round of my Silent Consent series, all ending in mid-March, just in time for the typical spring break.
This stand-alone has nothing to do with my Silent Consent universe, and it has its own set of characters to love and hate.
Dr. Kayla Eastman receives word that her wife has died in a tragic accident while on a dino dig. Both worked for a bullying department chair, Nick Tenhune, at Cando University (fictional), who treats the faculty like dirt. Following the funeral, he requires Kayla, still in a state of shock and grief, to travel west to Falcon, ND, to retrieve University property and return immediately. Once there, she questions the circumstances around her wife’s death. Without tenure, Kayla must choose between continued employment and uncovering the truth about her wife’s demise and face the consequences of her decision.
I set the novel in one of my favorite places, rural North Dakota. I have spent many summers in Rollete and Towner Counties and have wanted to use them as a setting for some time. Many of the local landmarks are real, like the Giant Turtle statue in Dunseith, ND (made out of over 2000 tire rims) and the colossal sandhill crane statue in Steele. I've gone rock-hounding in the agate pits of Souris, MB, and scampered over the Badlands in the west on dino digs. Cando is the county seat of Towner, but sadly, there is no Cando U.
