A Spent Bullet: Coming in November
This is the “elevator speech”* explanation of my upcoming novel, A Spent Bullet.
Elizabeth Reed is a young Louisiana schoolteacher who dislikes soldiers.
Harry Miller is a Wisconsin soldier who dislikes/hates Louisiana.
It only makes sense that they should meet and fall in love.
Set in western Louisiana during the 1941 Army Maneuvers, A Spent Bullet is the story of how our piney woods culture was changed by the invasion of a half-million soldiers.
* An ‘elevator speech’ is telling what your book is about within 15 seconds.
