Or How I Had the Title "FROZEN" First

The enormous Northern California sky shone down on Marin County that day as clear and clean as Waterford crystal.�� Cloudless.�� Visibility so high you see all the way to the Baja peninsula.
�� ���� We drove up the winding State Route 1 Highway into the hills of Marin County.�� Past the craggy shelves of granite overlooking the sapphire Pacific.�� Past the colon Read more of this blog post »

Quotes by Jay Bonansinga  (?)

“Amy Grech has a cinematographer's eye, and a surgeon's hand—at once brutal and tender, unsettling yet humane. These stories linger like traces of an acid trip. Highly recommended!”

— Jay Bonansinga, National Best-Selling Author of Twisted, Frozen,
and The Sinking of the Eastland”
Jay Bonansinga

“Homicide detectives know it as well. Emergency room nurses, paramedics—they all know the dirty little secret: It doesn’t get any easier. In fact, it lives in you. Every trauma, every horrible sight, every senseless death, every feral, blood-soaked act of violence in the name of self-preservation—they all accumulate like silt at the bottom of a person’s heart until the weight is unbearable.”
Jay Bonansinga, Descent

“sees. Glaciers could cleave continents, and the pain would still live somewhere in the secret chambers of the heart. For the lucky ones, scar tissue forms, and the passage of time builds more and more tissue until the pain is simply part of a person’s makeup, part of who he or she is—the grain in the wood.”
Jay Bonansinga, Descent
