    About this ebook

    When an autumn storm threatens, the traveler starts looking for some kind of shelter. A cave just might be what he's looking for, if it isn't already occupied by a bear, mountain cat or pack of wolves. When he enters, it's empty. But it isn't long before others come looking for ... something.

    Trudy V Myers

    I've been writing since the 4th grade, at least, mostly about women who don't fit in. But life got in the way, and writing took a back seat for far too long. As I approached the point where I was eligible to take 'early' retirement, I decided my next career would - at last - be writing. So here I am.

      The Cave - Trudy V Myers

      A cave can be a natural shelter from impending bad weather. Or a trap. And in this case, it might even be both.

      The Cave
