Description
It all began when a tree demolished a doghouse during a windstorm, revealing something momentous. Initially, Steven and John though it was a relic from a distant past, to be examined carefully, then filed away and forgotten. But that didn't happen, and chains from the past soon begin to rattle.
There's truth in the statement that the past is never dead. The veil concealing the greed and excesses of logging in the nineteenth century begins to lift. One death is soon followed by others, and it quickly becomes evident that family secrets, thought to be long dead and buried, are alive and displaying robust and malicious health.
Through it all, a lifelong friendship and an almost mystical connection to an old forest help lay to rest a tumultuous past and find a new way forward.
About the author
Having successfully retired from a long and fulfilling engineering career, Keith Weaver has made the switch to an enduring passion: writing. The present book, Flight, joins his other five novels, one novella, two books of short stories, and the memoir in tribute to his extraordinary wife, Maggie. There are further books in the pipeline. For an addicted reader and someone who has always had an insatiable thirst for knowledge, writing provides the perfect means to integrate all his interests in science, history, philosophy, languages, and technology, and to pursue fresh knowledge on every front. Things that anchor him to the real world are cooking, cycling in Europe, bread making, wine tasting in vineyards, spending time with many good friends, and enjoying the company of his two cats.
