Talking Leaves

By Jane Zimmermann

Something is happening in Dunnellon and these teens are about to discover what it is. Erin and Dakota Harris are coping with the recent loss of their mother when they meet Audrey Conroy, a sophisticated 14 year-old reluctantly uprooted from her urban world to this quaint country town. Their tentative friendship intensifies when they realize they share the same puzzling dream that includes the apparition of a young Indian girl. Rather than dismiss this other-worldly being as ridiculous, the three teens find themselves drawn to her. Their mutual vision leads to experiences they never anticipated, including the discovery of a tragic piece of their hometown history. Although far from perfect, our protagonists meet unexpected challenges with integrity and creativity, while managing to survive the daily drama of teenage life.
Talking Leaves is a story about friendship, history, mystery and more...
Talking Leaves is the first book in the Talking series by Jane Zimmermann. Talking Waters and Talking Italian complete the series.

Jane Zimmermann

I am fortunate that my life is filled with wonderful people and I am grateful that I have been able to experience many wonderful things. Whether it is visiting the Tiger's Nest in Bhutan, kayaking on the Rivanna River, or simply walking my dog, Fred, around the block, I am amazed by the world around me and I want to share this amazement with my readers. I also love a good mystery! So my stories are a combination of my wonder and joy of life with a plot that thickens...I have been a teacher, a stock broker, an accountant, a property manager, and a technical writer, among other things. I spent 13 years in Germany and I have lived in New York, Pennsylvania, Missouri, California, Vermont, Georgia, Tennessee and now Virginia. I embrace different people and ideas and I love to be outside. I now live in Central Virginia and I spend my days writing, gardening, cooking, walking my dog (who is very old now) and paddle boarding. The stand-up paddleboard is my new favorite.
