Résumé

The finest Christmas holidy story in decades. Storytelling is at its absolute best in this lovingly told tale of hurt and healing, of friendship, of the importance of place, and of unexpected romance. It tugs at the heartstrings akin to the movie 'It's a Wonderful Life, ' and the play 'Our Town.'Heartbreaking misfortune mark the years before age seven of a young orphan, Clark Miller, causing his adopted grandparents to raise him up in the small remote town of Millcreek, Pennsylvania.
A place to be from at last, and a foundation of family and one true friend, Willow Barker, are shattered by tragic circumstances. Clark Miller, the teenager, flees the town afraid of the rightful blame of its people, and to free the town and Willow from the menace he has always been. The death of Clark's adopted grandmother draws him back to the town he fled in shame, reliving his darkest past and a haunting he, Willow, and Millcreek had buried for more than thirty years.

Biographie de L K O'Neal

A brief bio. I worked for a long time in the energy business helping protect the reliability of the bulk power system across the country, and as a consultant in the energy business before turning full time to writing. 'Away Home' came to me when I visited a small town in Pennsylvania for my grandmother's funeral. Growing up, my parents took me regulartly to their small home town on holidays to visit the grandparents.
After a thirty year absence, I was stunned to see that nothing of any substance had changed in the town when sea changes in the name of progress had occurred everywhere else on the planet. This overwhelmed me with the power of a place that existed just fine almost as it had always existed. Not one thing was a tradition to be preserved and practised every year, but eveyrthing was a tradition to be preserved and practiced every day.
Change was made unnecessary because the age old art of living a good life does not need change. I've also written a non-fiction book entitled 'The theory of Everything Else, ' an engaging look at a new world view of the interconnection between all of us and the Universe at large that may well be the engine behind our best ideas and aha moments, but also moves our world and the Universe forward. To round out an odd composium of book subjects, I have written the first book of a quadrilogy about an apocolyptical biological seige designed to enable the replacement of the world's many failed governments with a single world government.
The first book of this fictional series should be available in the Fall of 2020. L K O'Neal
