The Darkwater Liar's Account

A Dark Adventure Told Between the Lines
London, 1930 -- Alpine Bavaria, 1936 -- Darkwater Creek, Nebraska 1968

Love and lies led young Bridget into Nazi entanglement, through war-torn Europe, and across an ocean to her Nebraska farm.

With secrets under the floor and graves in her garden, Bridget’s a double wife living a double life. Her crimes are leagues behind her, but as civil rights unrest and assassinations divide her new nation, genetic illness shakes her and a legacy of retribution climbs her farmhouse stairs.

When a blizzard of violence strikes home, driving her underground, Bridget discovers a tattered ledger.

Registering a life well lived, the empty pages invite her to confession, but can Bridget balance her accounts before the past breaks down her door?
