Bent Trees
She's sucked into the past when she enters the neighborhood grocery store.
Readers of psychological and romantic thrillers alike rave about Bent Trees, a thriller based on actual events that occurred in a local neighborhood grocery store in Jamestown, North Dakota.
Following a near-fatal accident, Alice Olson inherits Olson Grocery, a family neighborhood grocery store in Jamestown, North Dakota.
Alice stood in front of her inheritance: Olson Grocery, a fixture in Jamestown, North Dakota, since the 1920s. The abandoned store appeared both dead and alive.
Alice watched a white pickup logo “Brown Construction” on the side, pull up in front of the abandoned property.
The man exiting the pickup had a clipboard. Soft looking dark blonde hair replaced a once greasy pile. Thick locks covered what Alice knew were large ears. Gerard could never be called handsome, but with a full beard, he resembled nothing of the pimple-faced teen she remembered.
Hopefully he wasn't scared of a few ghosts.

Odd Story
This story was all over the place and left me feeling discombobulated. The overall storyline was interesting, which is why I kept reading until the end. But it was not well written or organized. There was a lot of skipping around of timelines, with absolutely no transition or warning. Other times the story seemed to change from day to night, or night to day, within minutes. I often wondered if the author just forgot what time of day she’d been writing about. Also, what ever happened to Alice’s job? Did she quit? Get fired? So confusing.

Bent Trees
This wasn’t my favorite book. At times, I found it hard to follow. The story line was different and characters were unique.
