Debut novel - Face Down In Rising Sun
Many people have asked what my debut novel is about and why I wrote it.
My book is fiction inspired by a true story set in the 1920's. The moment I heard about Clara, I knew that I wanted to know more about her story. Here is a short synopsis (without spoilers)
Face Down In Rising Sun- A missing small town girl and the crime that shocked the world
Clara Olson was a small-town girl from rural Crawford County, Wisconsin who longed for more than the experiences of growing up on a farm in a large Norwegian family. She aspired to see the world and experience the thrills of the Roaring Twenties.
A fated meeting with a dashing young man promised just that. Erdman Olson led a fast-paced lifestyle in the underground world of speakeasies and bootlegging amidst the Prohibition era.
Erdman introduced a world of excitement that Clara craved, but little did she realize how it would change her life forever. What happened next would shock the world and leave her family searching for answers.
