Excerpt from Book

Chapter One Winona Farmington opened one eye and saw through the window the white wonderland she woke up to for most of the winter in Beecher, Michigan. It was a small town, almost two hours north of Detroit, with a population of ten thousand. Beecher''s main claim to fame was that it had been hit by the tenth deadliest tornado in U.S. history in the 1950s, long before Winnie was born. Nothing much had happened there since. The other side of her double bed was cold, which meant that Rob had gotten up at least an hour before, and left for the meat processing plant where he worked. She guessed even before she glanced out the window that he hadn''t bothered to shovel after last night''s snow. The house she lived in had been her mother''s, and she owned it with her sister, Marje. Marje was already married with kids when their mother died, and she and Erik owned their own house, so Winnie stayed in the family house and they agreed that if they ever sold it, they''d split the proceeds equally. But for now at least, Marje didn''t need the money. Her husband owned a busy plumbing company, and the house was a good investment and likely to increase in value, so she''d never asked Winnie to sell it. Rob stayed with her almost every night. He had his own apartment, but rarely went there except when they had a fight, or if he stayed out too late and got too drunk when he went out with the boys and didn''t want to hear Winnie complain about it the next morning. The rest of the time he slept at Winnie''s, did no repairs, felt no great attachment to the place, and only helped her with something minor when she asked him. He kept some clothes in her closet, but nothing too personal, and none of his favorite items to wear. Winnie had once escaped Beecher to attend the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, and had loved it for the three years she''d been there. She had big dreams then, and wanted to work in publishing in New York after she graduated. She''d even visited the city a couple of times with her roommates and loved it, but then her mother got sick at the end of junior year, and by the end of the summer, it looked as if she only had a few months to live. Winnie didn''t want to miss being with her mother for her final days. They''d always been close, particularly after Marje moved out after she graduated from high school when Winnie was eight. She had her mother to herself from then on, and their time together was precious. Her mother had shared with her her passion for books, the delight of Jane Austen, the Bront
