Mossy Stone lives on the Bogachiel River near the small town of Forks, Washington. Forks is a timber town, populated by hard working men and women. It is located on the western slopes of the Olympic rain forest. Surprising and sometimes tragic circumstances of Mossy's life hone the hard edges of her stoic personality. She develops a keen tenacity of spirit, unusual physical strength, and superior self-confidence, while her curious habits and unconventional outlook on life earn her the reputation as an indomitable eccentric. She lives a mostly solitary life bolstered by unshakable freedom. She is boundlessly creative and expansively aware. But the essence of freedom is the challenge of choice, and Mossy finds out that every choice has consequence. When intimate intrusions bring the outside world to Mossy's doorstep, she faces daunting obstacles that cannot be ignored. Issues of eminent domain, definition of home, and the heartbreaking loss of innocence consume her. Mossy is subjected to the dilemmas faced by all endangered species. Her special adaptations leave her vulnerabilities exposed. Her strengths are useless in defending the home front against the encroachment of the modern world. She is unprepared for the unexpected.. Her pioneer spirit cannot protect her. Between Forks and Alpha Centauri is a literary journey you will never forget. The author delivers this personal fiction with a passionate voice. He is able to warm and chill the heart with equal beats. Chigger's unique writing style and captivating vocabulary charm the reader. He goes about his easy telling of the enchanting story of Mossy Stone, while a deeper momentum is gathering imperceptibly into a tightly coiled force which strikes every human emotion with strategic crescendo. This is a universal story about place, perseverance and probabilities.
