Shadows Of The Past (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798264039928)

"Shadows of the Past" revisits the Wachsmann family as they stand at the crossroads of tradition and a modern, industrializing world. The dairy farm remains the heart of their Wisconsin community, but a new, aggressive rival-an East Coast "bonanza farm"-threatens to upend their way of life and the local pasteurization market.

Into this upheaval strides Deputy U.S. Marshal Collin McCabe, who has been assigned to track a dangerous predator who is terrorizing area women. Alexandra's history with Collin resurfaces in a way that unsettles the household when Michael-her husband-welcomes his wife's former beau into their home, igniting unresolved passions and dangerous questions about trust and fidelity.

As the threat to the community intensifies, the Wachsmann's must safeguard their legacy while contending with deceit, competing interests, and a criminal who seems to move through the shadows. Old flames, buried secrets, and the ever-present risk to their family push them toward choices that could fracture everything they hold dear-or forge a new path toward justice and healing.

- This installment tackles difficult themes, including sexual violence and the impact of crime on survivors and families. The story aims to handle these issues with sensitivity, focusing on resilience, accountability, and healing rather than sensationalism. The power lies in character, consequence, and community, not explicit detail.
