I have to laugh pretty hard at the fact that I am an awesome Scrabble player. If you have read Book Basset for any length of time, you know that I am a horrible speller (There, Their, & They’re have gotten me a few times). We won’t even speak about grammar right now. I think it might drive my hubby nuts since I am always asking him to spell things. I grew up with spellcheck, and I think that really affected my ability to spell even the simplest things. In fact, just in this paragraph alone I have misspelled seven words. It looks like a red caterpillar army has taken over my computer. WOW! I can’t spell anything. I haven’t finished my coffee yet, so that could be a factor. Yaaaaa…. I gotta go clean this mess up. Enjoy the books!
Trails in the Sand (Florida Fiction Series)
by P.C. Zick
Genre: Contemporary Fiction | Women’s Fiction | Political
FREE for a limited time
Oil gushing from the depths of the Gulf of Mexico’s floor. Petroleum-covered wildlife gasping for air. Tar balls pushing into the grassy habitat of marine life. Beaches suffocating with the smell of fossil fuel instead of salt air.
All the while, sea turtles, in an ancient ritual, march from the sea, unaware of the dangers lurking for their precious cargo once hatched. The eggs laid — sometimes more than one hundred per nest — hatch in seventy days and begin their treacherous march to the sea if their natural predators don’t get to them first.
But in 2010, another more deadly predator — this one not natural — lurked in the waving underwater grasses where the hatchlings go to grow large enough to join the marine life in the larger bathtub of the sea.
This real-life drama serves as the backdrop to the fictional story of Caroline Carlisle, an environmental reporter covering BP’s Deepwater Horizon oil spill as wildlife officials race to save the threatened and endangered sea turtles of Florida’s Panhandle.
Caroline’s own life parallels the manmade disasters of April 2010 as her family is nearly destroyed by the secrets kept for generations.
The love story begins when Carline first laid eyes on Simon when she was nine years old. Unfortunately, he married her older sister, and thus set a southern family on a collision course with the past. After the death of her sister, which makes Simon a widow, the two finally marry and attempt to make a family. Simon’s daughter Jodi is less than welcoming to her new stepmother who also happens to be her aunt.
As Caroline reports on the oil spill threatening the sea turtle hatchlings, she begins a journey to uncover her own mother’s past, which includes the suicide of a sibling and a teenage pregnancy.
With her sharpened reporter skills, she digs until she brings all the secrets to light, and she can report that the sea turtle hatchlings are safe on the Atlantic beaches of Florida.

Just for a day, Colorado Sheriff David Wolf trades slogging through murky meltwaters and even murkier small-town politics for an overnight camping trip in the wilderness with his son.
