Shadows Rising
Seafield is in shock when newcomer Mr. Norman Hammersly arrives. For Mrs. Maurelle Mottershead (widow, mother, and resident of Crag Cottage), this signifies something greater-- the accidental revealing of their location to her manipulative mother-in-law. With her family on the edge of destitution, Maurelle finds that the shadows she has found comfort and safety in for so long can no longer be her refuge... unless she wants to give up everything she loves for a shallow sense of peace.

About the author
Victoria Minks
5 books67 followers Victoria Minks grew up as a third culture kid, enjoying the life of a foreigner in four different locations in Japan and traveling all across the United States twice with her family. This has instilled in her a love of travel and adventure, and while she is currently attending college in the northern woods of Michigan, she is eagerly anticipating her next adventure and location in life.
An avid bookworm ever since she can remember, she has cultivated a desire for telling stories since a young age, and still has hoards of old manuscripts from her first 15 years of life that she's too embarrassed to show anybody but too sentimental to throw out. These papers hidden in attic boxes are a timeline of her growth in the area of writing through the years and proof of the passion for books that she has nurtured.
When she was sixteen she began the first novel she decided was going to get published, whatever the cost. Since then she has written multiple books, all in various stages of the process to publication. A self-taught Jack-of-all-trades, she takes pleasure in learning how to web design, format books, create book covers, edit, market, budget, and finance everything.
She believes that life is a gift from God and is filled with beauty and whimsy. She is determined to live it fully for His honor and glory, through whatever means she has available to her--whether through writing, entrepreneurship, travel, or more. She has a heart for children, music, and ministry, as well as an affinity for drinking an excessive amount of coffee, throwing glitter into the air, singing in cars, and studying whatever random new topic catches her fancy.
