Beyond the Precipice

A YOUNG MAN WITH A DARK SECRET MUST CHOOSE …
Trapped by the wishes of his dead father and his brother’s blackmail, Bret Killeen suppresses his musical talent for years—until he meets Nicole, a university cello player with big dreams.

As Bret wrestles with unresolved grief and guilt over his father’s death, Nicole stirs his passion for music until it can no longer be ignored. Her supportive father provides a striking contrast to Bret’s own family, an enlightening that drives him to the breaking point.

At the threshold of adulthood, Bret must resolve his past in order to seize his future. The truth his mother needs to know, the power his brother holds over him, and the man their father really was are the sources Bret must tap to earn his freedom.

“… there are no vampires or fantasy elements. It’s a story of reality, high emotions, and trying to get by in the world the best you can … Beyond the Precipice is well worth the wait.”
–Scott Hayes, Award‐Winning Reporter, St. Albert Gazette

“The words in this novel flow like a musical masterpiece, with the highs and lows of Bret’s life carrying us forward. Today we need more
inspirational stories like this that read so smoothly and allow us to get lost in the notes of a great story. Bravo!”
