And Free This MONTH!

By Arline Chase

Set in the 1890s, KILLRAVEN is the story of Hope Voeschell, a young woman brought up to believe in non-violence, and DeCoursey Rogers a man who has known violence first hand, and what happens when an isolated peaceful community is confronted with a murderer. Killraven is a fictional Chesapeake Bay island, an isolated place rich in the traditions of its independent people. The novel is based in part on characters that originally appeared in the award winning short story collection, THE DROWNED LAND.

A Word from Arline

 

 

 

If I look happy, it's because I am.  Sid's surgery yesterday went "fairly well" and he was discharged last night and is recovering at home, sans gallstones.

Dave is still recovering from his surgery on Monday, the 23rd. He was out of bed yesterday, took a walk and had a nice sit up.  Still in a lot of pain, though, and not feeling as well this morning. He has Shelley with him for comfort.

We are all giving prayers of thanks for them both, though Sid says, "Forget me, I'm okay. It's Dave I'm worried about." We know Dave still has a long way to go, but at least there is a chance in the treatment program he has chosen.

I am giving the update this morning as Jack is singing hymns of praise with Roger. I add my voice and give thanks to all of you who have sent prayers out way.
