By 1984, when he had just turned thirty-nine, Eddie was fully aware that the demons from Vietnam wouldn't depart from him.\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne night in October, a flamboyant man steps into Eddie's life. Leonard Parks is wealthy, he says, because of his inborn writing talents. He asks Eddie to accompany him to a special project in Grand Traverse County, Michigan, promising him a huge paycheck.\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe older citizens in Grand Traverse County are in continual disagreement: some say that Elsie DuJack died in a drowning accident during the summer of 1911 when she was only seven years old. Others say that the parents kept their feeble-minded daughter hidden until 1967. A third group argues that a thoroughly haunted and lonely Elsie is still alive at age eighty in 1984, though she had always been incredibly elusive.\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe two men will spend a night in the home.

Following his own 70th birthday, Smith decided it was high time to set upon the task of describing a lonely, haunted and strangely talented feminine soul. The fictional house in a northern Michigan swamp was not a place where he really wanted to go. But once the work was underway, the author himself needed to learn if an imaginary Elsie DuJack was still there - and still alive.\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Joel Vernon Smith\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1480971529\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781480971523\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Rosedog Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/12\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 412\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.21lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.84d","brand":"Joel Vernon Smith","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47579759902975,"sku":"9781480971523","price":24.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_75b91da6-7d31-46b3-be5b-4914d84efa2e.jpg?v=1763876456","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/daughter-of-aaron-joel-vernon-smith-9781480971523","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
