In her debut, page-turning, genre-bending contemporary novel, Barbara Burton draws us into the world of her intrepid protagonist Skyler Bennett.
Skyler Bennett is reclusive, lonely, and depressed living in a small town in Southern California. She takes walks with her black lab at night to find peace and escape thoughts of her abusive family and the death of her supportive husband. One late night, during her regular walk down Rushville Street, she observes a murder in progress. Her life takes a turn when the assailant sees her face.
A Walk Down Rushville is the story of one woman's courageous spirit as she emerges from tragedy and loss into self-discovery. Spanning the spectacular villages of a small California beach town, Edenton, North Carolina, and Forio, Italy, Skyler brings us along on her transformative psychological, physical, and spiritual journey, where she explores the true meaning of family in all its forms. Walk with Skyler as she learns a new definition of family, one she will only learn about if she can open her heart to those who love her.
