Book Review: ‘Alone in the Wind’
About the Book
In the second installment of the misadventures of Megan Docket, she learns of the investigation of meth dealing in the area. A gut feeling forces her to question the motives of a DEA agent residing in the area. As she snoops on the agent, she becomes protective of a young teen and a young autistic, who works at the local diner. Meth use in the community causes the deaths of two friends and ensnares local residents in the drug trade.
Meanwhile, discord with her husband, Brian, creates problems at home. When the DEA agent and the chief of police commit murder, Megan uncovers the truth. When she impulsively takes action against the men, it blackens her soul and plunges her into a personal hell. Burdened with grief over the community tragedies and her own guilt, she seeks peace and redemption.
About the Author
Judy spends most of my time writing novels. A mother of two, a wife of one, a sibling of three, I was orphaned at age thirty-three. Aside from writing novels, she has contributed various works on law, history, and social issues. Her true love, apart from my family, is fiction—writing and reading it.
