About this series
As the wheels touch down on the runway at Belize's international airport, an old Buddhist saying skips through Amanda's mind; "Make the truth your island, make the truth your refuge; there is no other refuge."
The life she's worked so hard to achieve has crumbled.
Amanda needs a refuge; a safe place, time for bruises to heal, a space to assess the damage and gain distance from the barrage of events that nearly ended her life.
To friends and coworkers, she said, "It's time to pick up the pieces. Two or three weeks alone on the beach in Cancun, soaking up the sun and visiting blue fish on the reef, should do the trick ... then, I'll return to Chicago, get back to work, and search for an apartment."
She knew that was a stretch. Sorting through lies, deceits, and her disturbing dreams would take time, but heaped on top of all that is the pain from the tragic loss of her closest friend and her broken marriage. It would not be a simple vacation on the beach, or that after it, like magic, life would return to normal. Normal was over.
Her true destination is a private island off the coast of Belize, far from the crowded Avenida Kukulkan in Cancun, and even farther from the danger of those that might have followed from Chicago.
As she steps onto the hot tarmac in Belize, she knows — life has changed forever.
Just not in the ways she had imagined.

Nothing is ever as rock-solid as denial — or as threatening as change. Just one week ago, Amanda would have described her life as perfect. Against the odds, life finally matched her lifelong desire to feel settled; comfortable in a great relationship, living together in a charming apartment in a historic district of Chicago, a new job at a quality firm — even the frightening nightmares and premonition dreams had stopped. And the icing on this perfect cake; an adopted rescue dog named Sunny. When tragic events shift her life's trajectory, her nightmares and dark premonition dreams return. These dreams never lie, but understanding their twisted symbolism requires rooting around in the past and a damaged childhood, a place she tries to avoid. I understand why most people ignore their dreams. I just can't. They won't let me. The Amanda J.

1
Amanda's a survivor. She's stepped around the darkest shadows where the demons of a traumatic childhood lurk, where nightmares and premonitions of brutal and unstoppable events hide. She is living the life she has always wanted; satisfying career, married, owns a comfortable home with a backyard just big enough to throw a Frisbee. Until, on a routine morning run, the scent of honeysuckle blooming in the neighbor's yard hits like a time stamp on a premonition dream. Everything turns upside down within a matter of days, and a tsunami of tragic events causes the thin walls between reality and imagination to blur with sadistic twists. She heads down a dangerous path, her mind dangling from a damaged thread. Forcing her to reevaluate everything as she fights to survive. She can no longer ignore the dream. The clock is ticking on the year of her death. The Amanda J.
