Produktbeschreibung
To the outside world, psychology student Evelyn Jackson has a perfect life, but her secrets threaten to rip away everything she loves. Desperate to find a solution, she returns home, only to find an even more devastating secret: her long lost friend from childhood, Caroline, has slipped from reality and has been labeled the town crazy. Eager to help Caroline and to avoid dealing with her own crisis, Evelyn is drawn into the dark world of abuse and neglect Caroline has secretly endured her whole life. Evelyn braves the perils of Caroline's schizophrenia and discovers the ugly, dangerous side of real-life mental illness her studies haven't prepared her for. Shaken but determined, Evelyn attempts to draw Caroline from the horrors of her own mind, eventually revealing the pain and shame that has held her in the clutches of depression for months. Dragged along an emotional rollercoaster, Evelyn is forced to find strength she never knew she had, but if she can't save her friend from her pain, she may lose Caroline to suicide and herself to a lifetime of regret.

Autorenporträt
Growing up a shy child with limited means, John Ryland became an avid reader. These forays into the world of fiction quickly fueled his desire to write. Since the day his second-grade letter was published in the local newspaper, he knew he wanted to see his work in print. He penned his first story at an early age, and always loved telling stories. His first novel, written around the age of fifteen never saw the light of day, but it did further his desire to write. Reading the "masters" of the craft like Hemmingway, Frost, and Witman among others, he learned what a great book looked and felt like. Inspired by other southern writers, he enjoys a southern setting in his longer works. His work has appeared in print since 1997. Today he lives in Northport, Alabama with his wife and two sons, where he writes poetry, short stories, and longer works. When he is not writing, John enjoys gardening, sports, and still enjoys reading the old masters.
