The Tinfoil Rose

by Kathryn Huston-Smith

The birth of the new year brought hope to many, but nothing prepared Abigail Bennett, a small-town West Michigan educator, for the odyssey that laid ahead. Still recovering from personal trauma, she is unjustly fired from a career she loves and manipulated into playing the pawn in a dangerous game of intrigue by a coworker living a double life. As her Panglossian outlook is put to the ultimate test, she finds herself an ill-equipped instrument of reform in a world she never knew existed—where the innocent are condemned and trusting others has life-altering consequences. Finding strength in perseverance through adversity, Abby engages a greater purpose to pursue justice not only for herself, but for those without a voice who have been cast aside by society and forgotten. Compelled to connect the dots in a race against time, she plunges headlong into a journey of discovery to unveil hidden truths that could exonerate them all.
