After many years or laboring with this story, my first novel is finally finished.  Though some suggested I write this as a memoir, I resisted because I wanted to change history and give the story of my mother a different ending.   Since my mother’s body was never officially found or identified, Bridges and Angels: The Story of Ruth is about what could have happened after her disappearance.  This 350-page book is fiction, but much of it is nonfiction. I hope you find the story compelling.
