Waters of the Dancing Sky

"There is a land of the living and a land of the dead, and the bridge is love - the only survival, the only meaning." Thornton Wilder

Sometimes you must tiptoe across that bridge linking this world with the next. Sometimes it is the only way to put the twisted pieces of one's life back togther again.

Escaping from an abusive marriage, she retreats to her family's wilderness island home on Rainy Lake along the Minnesota/Ontario international border. Here she embarks upon a journey of self-discovery that flows through a series of wilderness adventures, past and preseent. As she delves into her mother's old diaries, she discovers long-held family secrets including the shocking identity of her father. Spirits of the past emerge as she struggles through a complex web of emotions and shifting relationships. Can she forgive and put the past behind her? Can she learn to trust and love again?
