About this ebook
Three short stories, three characters, three midlife revelations. Terry is looking for the truth about the body she buried when she was eight years old, Mrs. Brown is desperately seeking a job, and Martin wants a Christmas present for his wife. All three discover a little more than they bargained for.
Lori Nelson Clonts
Lori Nelson Clonts lives in the Cascade foothills of Washington state with her husband and dog. She is an artist and writer. For many years she ran a glass art business but has recently closed her business to pursue painting and writing full time.
