It’s a tough life for 18-year-old Betsy Racine, trying to take care of her disabled grandfather and alcoholic mother. Worst of all, a year ago, her brother disappeared in a snowstorm, and now she learns that he had with him over three million dollars of somebody else’s money. Somebody who just got out of prison and will do whatever it takes to get it back. Others join the hunt and they all want Betsy to help them find the cash. But why would she? She doesn’t care about the money and her brother is dead…isn’t he? As new clues surface, she begins to wonder. Just to make sure, she tags along with a group of seekers and finds herself sucked into a world of danger far greater than anything she could have imagined.
If you like quirky characters, fast-paced action with uncertain outcomes, family issues, a bit of romance, and a setting split between the wilds of upstate New York and the grit of New York City, then this is a fit for you.
My work history has mostly centered around the visual arts: as a glass artist, a high school art teacher, and a graphic designer. However, I have always loved to write, and as a graphic designer, often created and edited text for print and the web. Writing fiction is also in my blood, dating back to grade school, and I am well on my way to making the transition to doing it full time. The writing process is exciting, exhausting, energizing, entertaining, and always educational. I grew up in a small state college town near the Canadian border, about an hour from Montreal and currently, I live in Ithaca, New York. I spend my free time hiking, traveling, reading, listening to or playing music, and thinking about writing.
