Fiction
A missing teenager. A troubled cold-case sleuth. A twenty-year-old mystery never resolved.
Art Dodger, Savannah-based artist, isn't too impressed at first by the story of Danielle Standridge's disappearance twenty years before. He accepts that she's gone. That someone else caused her absence by no means strikes him as certain. Fifteen-year-old girls do all sorts of odd and unexplained things, then and now. Still, in Dodger's experience, which is considerable, when a girl as good-looking as Danielle manages to stay missing for decades, it usually doesn't bode well.
A work of fantasy, redemption, friendship, and romance that travels in time between 2008 and colonial Pennsylvania just before the American Revolution.
