The author of A Debt Too Dear & To Touch to the Earth Again

An idyllic lake in a peaceful forest…with death just down the road.

Anna Koenig is a young, smart, and ambitious woman in 1889. But her quest to build bridges, tunnels, and tall buildings is stymied by the male-dominated world. Of necessity, she takes the lesser position of supervising the buildings and grounds of a rural retreat for the wealthy. As Anna struggles to succeed, she luckily has Ben, a former slave, as a talented and wise subordinate. Over time, the two overcome their vast personal differences to forge a strong working relationship. Disaster and death lurk nearby, however, for those at the retreat…including Anna and Ben.
