Illusions I Recall: Elegy for a Flower Child, is a mystery though not a whodunit-the reader learns in the first paragraph that a woman has been murdered by her husband. But what about those left behind by the tragedy, struggling to comprehend how their beloved Nora, a middle-aged librarian at the peak of her career, could have fallen to such rageful brutality? How does Suzanne, the last person to spend time with her best friend, release the guilt, that she missed something vital? Especially, how does Nora's grief-stricken, pre-teen daughter Rachel survive the traumatic loss of both her parents-killed and killer? How do either of the protagonists move on without resolving their burning questions? Going back and forth in time, between the formation of an unlikely friendship in the chaotic nineteen sixties and a young woman's coming-of-age journey thirty years later, Illusions tracks somewhat parallel, often dangerous, choices fueled by loneliness, shame, and disenchantment. Years after the murder, a collision of events forces Rachel from her self-destructive path and leads her to reunite with Suzanne. Bonded by their love for Nora and a persistent thirst for answers, they uncover secrets she kept from even her closest friend. Readers are saying: "A beautiful, unique book," "I couldn't put it down!" "It brought up a memory I hadn't thought of in thirty years-powerful," "Wonderful experience...took us on quite a journey. Thank you for the thought and attention you gave to the sixties, the different points of view..."
