Carving Wood Finding Shendra Lieghton Book Two

Book Two- Shendra Leighton would best be described as a profoundly unhappy young woman. With the accidental death of both her parents and in the midst of suffering deep depression and grief, a letter arrives from a lawyer in Texas. Upon reading the documents, she discovers that she had a brother, of whom she was unaware. The fact that he had died and bequeathed to her a fortune, a large house, a rare wood supply business, and an entire town in` the pine woods of East Texas was inexplicable. It was necessary to fly to the town to handle the legal matters associated with her newfound estate and discover her familial relationship with this man who claimed to be her brother. The town was something from a Twilight Zone episode, full of odd characters and mystery. She finds in the beautiful, carved wood adorned house a strange journal of an apprentice of a master woodcarver who appeared to live with her brother. The entries are zen-like and deeply affecting to her, revealing hidden and forgotten memories. Shendra discovers that what she thought was her life was a lie. The real reason her brother bought and financed the town is revealed and the truth as to who Shendra and the inhabitants of the town really are becomes dangerously and violently apparent.
