In Franklin's House
Oak Tree Press, March 2010

At the top of the stairs in an isolated, turn-of-the-last century house set on a Northern California hillside, Kate Andrews steps into a deserted room that exerts a strange appeal. Based largely on her attraction to this room, she decides to buy the Victorian and to move from Iowa with husband Dan, whose affair with a partner's wife has led to dissolution of an independent insurance company.

Drawn repeatedly to the upstairs room, she finds a diary written in 1906, which tells of Franklin Elliott, a poet, who appeared after his death.

In Franklin's House, a story of love and awakening, involves very real modern day problems sprinkled with the dust of that which is not always easily explained.
