Produktbeschreibung
A retired pilot dives on the ship he sank, looking for what-or who? AMERICA, 1985: Nick Mitchel's world is shattered by his beloved wife's death. His passion for his work evaporates, leaving no other barrier to his dark memories of the war. After nightmares and depression take over, a childhood friend pushes him to go back and face long-buried truths. But the diving expedition in the Pacific Ocean he'd hoped would heal old wounds takes an unexpected turn. JAPAN: Junichi Takahashi is angry and desperate to be free, but not clear on what to be free from. As the son, who loves his father dearly, and, though he resents it, he vows to fulfill the dying man's request. After his own childhood horrors from the war re-emerge, touring the devastated ship his father served on is the last thing he wants to do. Never suspecting that on this journey, he would find the target for his anger. When the two meet, enemies reignite in a dangerous battle of perspectives.
Autorenporträt
Stephanie Woodman is an avid collector of experiences and a perpetual student of life. Despite her analytical background with a long engineering career and a short tenure as a high school math teacher, Stephanie has a powerful creative side which has manifested itself in her debut novel, Eye Contact Over Truk, a decades-long endeavor which was started in 1996 and finished after her retirement in 2021. With the additional life experience, her writing transformed to explore themes of perseverance, forgiveness, grief, loss, life, love, and adventure. This evolution of her story is captured best by Mark Twain's timeless adage that "history often rhymes." Outside the realm of literature, Stephanie loves playing pickleball and golf, scuba diving, sailing, traveling the world, and spending time with her son, who is now starting his own adventure in college. She helps students in her community in robotics programs and is also known for her past role as a clown, bringing laughter and joy to those in need.
