CATERPILLAR

by vicki zell

Keara Wexler was eight years old when she witnessed her fourteen-year-old brother Henry commit murder. Keara kept the secret all to herself, but then some years later, Henry decided to spill his guts, so he told his parents what happened that night upon Dobson Hill, and Henry's truth, though it was the truth, came with an underlining lie. Keara feared what would happen when the real truth to what happened that night was revealed. Why did Henry commit this act of violence? Was he a born killer? Or was Henry protecting someone from the actual truth? Would his parents Gerald and Grace see fit to alert the authorities as to what happened, or cover up their sons lies with more lies? What really did happen that night on Dobson Hill? When other dead bodies start to come to the surface, will Keara go to the police and tell them what Henry did years ago? Or will she continue to protect her brother? And what will Keara do now that she has another little brother on the way? Will Josh become the next killer in the Wexler family? Could this sickness be hereditary? Is Keara a born killer? Will Josh become one, too? Who is it they take after? Their father? Or, is it their mother. Grace? Or was it just a bad draw of the cards dealt at birth?

About the author

Born to immigrant farmers in the early fifties, Vicki suffered the debilitating diseases of the era with Tuberculosis and Polio. With perseverance and a strong family tie, Vicki made it through the many ups n downs throughout her life, always dabbling in the writings of poems and mysteries far before the internet. It was near impossible to get publishing houses to take notice. The long trips to and from the post office only to receive rejection letters were mounting. Vicki got caught up in life, lost in the fine line of hard work and play. She now puts her stories to the page, self publishing her works. She mainly writes Friction Fiction, mystery suspense novels with twists and turns, keeping her readers alert and on the edge of their seat. She intertwines through her stories a bit of her own knowledge she's picked up throughout her years of traveling, and she incorporates this bit of opinion into her story line.
