Authors on Authors

 

    

    The Rainy Day Room is happy to introduce "Authors on Authors", a new review page to afford the Independent Authors of good books additional exposure. We'll try to put up interesting overviews of their work that goes a little beyond the normal reiteration of content or plot. I don't see authors as in competition with each other. The readers can read the books faster than we can write them if they only know they are 'out there', so be sure to share the link to this page with the readers on your 'lists'. We welcome submissions from anyone with a favorite book they'd like to introduce to others because of the impact it had on them as a reader or an author. There will be no 'ranking' number assigned, as the intention is to share, not to judge.

The House on Slocum Road

by D. H. Clair

Synopsis:

Will a young socialite repress her psychic gift to appease the man she loves, or will she succumb to the mysterious pull of the past and risk losing all she holds dear ~ 

 

That's Lottie Winslow's quandary.   

Strange things are happening to Lottie Winslow. Who is the stranger she sees in the mirror? Why is the same dream invading her sleep night after night? How can she witness an event that hasn't yet happened? Determined to find the answers on her own despite her doubting husband's objections, Lottie embarks upon a relentless search for her identity and familial connection. She makes a discovery in The House on Slocum Road that sparks a chain of events, which lead her to her inevitable date with destiny. 

About the Author:

Dahris spent a large portion of her life pursuing a career in music and community theater. Her proudest achievement was being chosen the official songbird for the Veterans of WWI in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. Her favorite theater roll was playing the zany, lovable MAME for the Opus XXX Theater. The idea for The House on Slocum Road, was conceived, outlined and shelved for over twenty years. “I thought it was too far out. Then came Somewhere In Time, Back to the Future and others. I decided to plunge in and do my thing.”

Dahris is married, the mother of four children and has five grandchildren. She is presently living on the Gulf Coast of Florida. Her words to live by: It’s Never Too Late.

 

 

Review

 

The House On Slocum Road is encompassing. It's well written, well researched, timely, and entices the reader into the story on page one. Yet, it's one of those books which tends to slow the reader down as the end approaches in the hopes that it will go on. I found it especially endearing as the tenets often referred to as 'paranormal' are, to me, quite normal. I found myself relating to Lottie and wanting to embrace her.
