A forgotten battle. A live-aboard dive vessel. Will exploring what lies under the coral tear these men apart? America, 1985. Nick Mitchel is wracked by grief. Destroyed by his beloved wife's death, the retiree is fighting to keep his flashbacks from disturbing long-buried truths. And a diving expedition in the Pacific Ocean he'd hoped would heal old wounds only reopens dark memories of the war... Japan. Junichi Takahashi is brimming with indignation. After surviving the WWII firebombing of Tokyo as a child, he resents his dying father's request to explore a sunken graveyard. And with the location now a tourist mecca for scuba divers, he's furious that one of his nation's most tragic losses has turned into an underwater playground. As Nick struggles with nightmarish visions, his anger awakens when a saboteur starts tampering with his equipment. And as Junichi battles to make peace with his grim history, he confronts Nick in a dangerous collision of perspectives. Can the two men salvage anything from the wreckage of a bitter conflict? Eye Contact Over Truk is a heartrending work of historical fiction. If you like nuanced characters, emotional journeys, and surreal backdrops, then you'll love Stephanie Woodman's thought-provoking exploration of the past.

Autorenporträt
Stephanie Woodman is an avid collector of experiences and a perpetual student of life. Despite her analytical background with a long engineering career and a short tenure as a high school math teacher, Stephanie has a powerful creative side which has manifested itself in her debut novel, Eye Contact Over Truk, a decades-long endeavor which was started in 1996 and finished after her retirement in 2021. With the additional life experience, her writing transformed to explore themes of perseverance, forgiveness, grief, loss, life, love, and adventure. This evolution of her story is captured best by Mark Twain's timeless adage that "history often rhymes." Outside the realm of literature, Stephanie loves playing pickleball and golf, scuba diving, sailing, traveling the world, and spending time with her son, who is now starting his own adventure in college. She helps students in her community in robotics programs and is also known for her past role as a clown, bringing laughter and joy to those in need.
