In this fantasy series by Owen Richard Kindig, we first meet Jules, tethered to a rock-climbing rope on a cliff just below Owl Ridge-120 stories above Katahdin Falls in northern Maine. He is an environmental researcher with dark secrets. 'Can it ever be undone?' Such a thought had never crossed Jules' mind on that cold May morning when he jumped to his death. He had been alone for too long-lived too many bleak years as a witness to slavery, war, environmental mayhem, and now a pandemic worsened by the president. But when he was saved by a beautiful, mysterious rock climber, he couldn't resist her kindness. With nothing left to live for, he follows Grenleigh into the 100-Mile Wilderness-eluding search parties, sheltering in caves, and crossing the deepest woods of Maine. There they debate the possibility of hope and the value of every human life. Together, they unwind centuries of historical and personal trauma, and Jules discovers what happens when an incomplete man encounters a complete woman. Reasons for hope. Forever-dreams. And the irresistible power of love. Owen Richard Kindig spent his first career as a visual dramatist of other people's stories. Since retiring as the Public Information Officer of the University of Alaska Southeast in Sitka, he has been focusing on the greatest stories which seem never to be told: valuable anonymous lives cut short by the everyday tragedies of death and injustice, and the happy new adventures that would start if the abrupt endings of history could be undone. He lives in Sitka, Alaska with Beth, his wife of fifty-three years, and a list of untold stories that he works on writing every day.
