Lizzy's Bridge

About the Book

Deep in the mountains of western Pennsylvania, the fictional small coal mining towns held many secrets during the post World War II era. Centered in the tiny village of Gunther, PUDDIN’ FOR BREAKFAST masterfully described a child’s transcendence from a dysfunctional family’s cruelty. KISS THE FLY GOODBYE brilliantly set the wheels of vigilantly justice into motion. Now LIZZY’S BRIDGE completes the trilogy to tell the story of Lizzy Wickett. This young woman had only one secret...her son, Rayn. Exaggerated tales of Lizzy’s traumatic experience fed the gossipers and created a mystery, while the reality behind Rayn’s conception remained a secret. Seventeen years after Rayn’s birth, Lizzy finds herself facing repressed emotions. Can Lizzy muster the courage to face the past and cross her emotional bridges? Can she face the demons that have lain dormant for so many years? Will those who are intertwined in Lizzy’s circle be able to face facts that threaten to disrupt, or possibly destroy, their lives. Learning the truth about Lizzy’s attacker only forces more truths to surface creating situations that could affect many in the community, including her attacker’s sons. Reunited with love, Lizzy understands the need to allay her anxieties. Intrigue and romance seemingly swim against the current throughout the story. Will love and trust be enough for Lizzy to bridge her fears? Can she successfully tread a life of deserved happiness when she crosses Lizzy’s Bridge for the last time? Will Lizzy’s truths prove triumphant? Dare to cross Lizzy’s Bridge with her and discover a tale of invigorated strength.
