How much would you sacrifice to hide a secret? Andee Camp inherits a box of family history after tragedy strikes along with a challenge to write a novel based on her ancestors. To fulfill this dream, she would exchange her book reviewer hat for one of a writer, forcing the seeds of self-doubt aside. With obstacles littering her path, she discovers the mystery surrounding her relationship with her parents and theirs with each other alongside new pieces in a complicated puzzle. Catherine and Fulton Smith added twins, Victoria Jeanne and Benjamin Thomas, to their family in Portland, Oregon on August 13, 1922, the same day twins, William Theodore and Joanna Abigail, blessed Eve and Leon Brown with an addition to theirs in Amarillo, Texas. Many years later behind the backdrop of the San Gabriel Mountains in Southern California, whether by fate or destiny, the Smiths and Browns form a bond lasting three-quarters of a century. Life in a Box is like leaping off the diving board and seeing the sky from the bottom of the pool. When the author breaks through the ripples, a layered story rich with humor and heartache, discovery, and growth emerges and in the end, readers understand the depth of the story.

Autorenporträt
JoDee Neathery's idea for A Kind of Hush, appeared in the middle of the night with the profile of the young boy and the first few sentences scratched out on the ever-present notepad on the nightstand beside her bed. "I didn't know the whole story, but I knew that whatever I wrote next, this lad had to play a major role in the narrative and Gabriel Edward Mackie doesn't disappoint." Born in Southern California, JoDee grew up in Midland, Texas. Her professional career branched into public relations, recruiting executives for TracyLocke Public Relations and Bustin & Co. in Dallas, and Creamer Dickson Basford of New York. JoDee and her husband currently live in East Texas near their only daughter, son-in-law, two teenage grandsons, a bird dog, four cats, a donkey and a few head of cattle. It was here she found her "dream job," chairing and writing minutes and reviews for eighteen years in support of the community book club, Bookers, whose members championed her novel writing journey. "They believed in me before I did."
