The Oak Tree

by Ellsie Brooks

Jake, Farmer, Marshall and Carter Rice are average boys from North Bike riding, fishing, and roaming the woods. The one spot they call their own is under the Oak tree on the Marshall farm. After Jake's chores on the farm, it's fun as usual--until he and Carter Rice find the chopped up body of seventh grade Taylor Wilson. Twenty years later, Jake Marshall is still living in the shadows of that day, the day he and Carter were marked the prime suspects. Now, after so much time he is ready to tell his side of the truth, even if it kills him.

About the author

I have lived in North Carolina my entire life. My husband, Steven, and I have been married for thirteen years and have two children. Brayden (9), and Faith (6) are the source of happiness.
I am currently perusing a Degree in English and enjoy taking every creative writing class I can attend.
My first published book is 'My Life in Your Eyes- Addyson's story.' A teen fiction based on actual events. My hope is to help stop bullying and give people a reason to be more open minded.
My second published book, "The Samson Brothers" Fiction/Mystery/Romance. This book will take you down several twists and turns before, hopefully, blowing you away at the end. It is very hard to talk about it without giving anything away. My third book 'The Samson Brothers-The Revelation' will be published by September 2013.

[Ellsie · Rating 2 out of 5]

It's ok. Rushed ending. I think the Author could have taken more time with the ending.
