Description
Two women. One chance to get it right...
"This town has stories," Jo's mother said. "You're the one to tell them." Now her mother is gone, and Jo blames herself. In the Gilded Age boomtown of Astoria, Oregon, she sets out to prove herself as a girl reporter. Following the trail of a missing maid, she finds her newspaper's publisher dead. Left in charge of the paper, she discovers danger is a lot closer than she thinks.
In present-day Astoria, Olivia is running from her failures. The more she tries to control her life, the more it gets away from her. Now she's got a bookshop she never wanted and an offer that will turn the town against her. Jo's unfinished Gilded Age story could be the one thing she gets right, if only she can make the pieces fit. Is Jo's secret the key to her redemption?

Person
Deb Vanasse is the award-winning author of lots (18 at last count) of books. Much of what she knows about writing and life she learned in Alaska, where she also mastered the art of hauling water and cooking ptarmigan. She loves characters who tug at the heart and stories that grab you from the opening line and never let go.
Deb is the co-founder of Alaska's 49 Writers, and she has been invited to join the faculty at several writers' conferences. After 36 years in Alaska, she now lives on Oregon's north coast, where you'll find her strolling the beach with her husband and boxer dog.
