The After Days

In a world without power, you need the power of friendship and love to survive.

Middle-aged suburbanites Rachel and Zach team with their friends to battle not only the predators and scavengers who lurk around every corner but also empty pantries, boredom, despair … and sometimes each other.  How far are they willing to go to survive the Big Blackout?

This gripping dystopian twist on contemporary fiction about a woman who must find within herself the strength and ingenuity to endure a world suddenly without electricity is both terrifyingly real and astonishingly tender.
Perfect for book clubs, The After Days explores the ethical quandaries and logistical problems of ordinary suburbanites – people whose most recent problems were dodgy Wi-Fi and cranky bosses – in their struggle to survive in the increasingly treacherous suburbs of Washington, DC.

A Word From The Author

As a writer, I love to explore complex issues through the perspective of ordinary people. I want to give my readers terrifyingly real, astonishingly tender, gripping stories.

I split my time between North Bethesda, Maryland and Bethany Beach, Delaware. When I’m not writing, I’m golfing, pickleballing, traveling, spoiling my granddaughter, attempting TikTok art projects, and taking long walks to burn the calories in the bread I love to bake.

The Many Deaths of Charlie Stewart

I’m currently polishing my second novel, The Many Deaths of Charlie Stewart.

In this upmarket fiction, Charlie retires from his 30-year career as a clandestine government assassin who eliminates dangerous terrorists. Although delighted to spend more time with his wife and family, he soon misses the rush of his missions and making the world safer. When a friend begs Charlie to grant his mother’s wish to die before Alzheimer’s destroys her mind, Charlie enables the grateful woman to leave this world painlessly and in peace. Soon Charlie receives other requests from people with debilitating and agonizing diseases. How can he turn them away?

When his beloved wife Beth learns she has ovarian cancer, Charlie views death in an entirely new way, no longer instigating it but desperately fighting it. What will Charlie do if Beth requests her own final release from a tenacious cancer?

This is far and away the most compelling read I’ve experienced in a long time. No lie. This is seriously good. It’s fresh, entertaining, and thought-provoking.”

“I rate it 5 stars. Siting on the fence between Contemporary Fiction and Dystopian Fantasy, the author’s style is crisp, using just the right amount of detail to set the scene. She created well rounded characters that held my attention and helped the story to progress at a steady rate.”
