Lost and Found: Stories

LOST AND FOUND is an eclectic collection of twelve stories recounting tales of love and loss, heartache and redemption. This vibrant new collection offers a ranging cast of characters, from Emily, isolated on the fog-draped Oregon coast as she confronts the loss of her unborn child a thousand miles away from her Wyoming childhood home to Homer, an aging Colorado farmer struggling to hold onto old ways and once familiar expectations after he finds a migrant worker's body dumped on his land. Readers will venture into the chaos of the war in Iraq and the cancerous inheritance after Vietnam, into Colorado mining towns and Wyoming missile silos.
