About

Jesse Ruddock

Rachel is a young single mother living with her son, Tristan, on a lake that borders the unchanneled north – remote, nearly inhospitable. She does what she has to to keep them alive. But soon, and unexpectedly, Tristan will have to live alone, his youth unprotected and rough, even brutal, mirroring the wild open place that is his only home, and that will be overrun by strangers — strangers inhabiting the lodge that has replaced his home, strangers that make him fight, or talk, or even love, when he doesn’t want to.

A resonant book of first love, first loss, then second love, Shot-Blue brings to life the dance of consciousness, how in mind and heart we do not exist alone on our own terms.
