Cassie’S Quest

By Lynda Patriquin

Cassie is a foster child of the state of California. She has been in many foster homes; some good and some bad. She is going to another one. This foster is one of the better ones and she is about to embark on the greatest adventure of her young life.

Cassie is sleeping in her room in the attic, when she is awakened by the rain. As she looks out her window, she sees a mysterious light, floating in the hills. She should have kept this secret to herself. Instead, it takes her on a journey of danger and intrigue as she and Cole witness a crime, deep in the canyon floor. Without the help of Cole's horse, Bolero, the creature would have surely died.

Lynda Patriquin

Lynda began writing when her children were very young. She read fairy tales to them at bedtime, but when she ran out of fairy tales, she thought it would be fun to invent a few stories of her own. She was encouraged by her father-in-law, Donald Brown, who was a reporter and writer for the Detroit Free Press. He edited and gave her suggestions as she wrote her stories. One Christmas season, the money that she had saved for gifts for her children, was stolen. The only gift she could give them was a Christmas story. At the prodding of her children, she would write another story each year at Christmas time, reading the previous stories before Christmas Eve when she would read the new story. This has become a tradition. Lynda always wanted a horse when she was a little girl but was never granted one. She acquired her first horse when she was an adult. She has had many horses in her lifetime and many learning experiences. Horses have become a part of her soul. Lynda lives with her husband, Dennis, in Southern California. She is a Real Estate Agent for Century 21 Lois Lauer Realty. In her spare time, she writes. In the spring and summer months she shows miniature horses with her grandson, London.
