For the past twelve months I've been writing a new historical novel set in the first third of the twentieth century. The book will be published by Lake Union, an imprint of the Amazon Group that also bought and published Three Daughters. The publication date is May 9, 2017 however the book is available for pre-order on Amazon.
For all of the writers who read my blog, I will soon devote a new post recounting the unique personal experiences that came with my Amazon association.
Here is the link to Fortune's Daughters and below is the prologue.
Prologue
At the turn of
the twentieth century, the Hempstead Plains, fertile and halcyon,
bordered by the great Atlantic, blessed by God with every source of outdoor
pleasure, broke off from Queens and became Nassau, the sixty-first county of
New York State.
America’s bankers and industrial tycoons built castles
along the rolling North Coast and manicured the rough virgin woods from Great
Neck to Lloyd Harbor. J. P. Morgan, Frank Woolworth, Marshall 3Field, Harry
Guggenheim, Frank Doubleday, and Asa Simpson. The names told the history of America’s
stunning growth. The unblemished county was only twenty-nine miles from the
squalor of glutted lower Manhattan, where the millions were made on
the corner of Broad and Wall.
