The Cabin on Green Creek (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781491033364)

"The Cabin on Green Creek" tells the story of Helen Nordstrom, a writer and retired nurse, who has moved back to the valley in Wyoming where she grew up. Helen is merely looking for some peace and solitude at her cabin in the mountains. She is haunted by her ex-husband's suicide, then finds her niece dead of a drug overdose. While hiking on the Table Mountain trail, she witnesses a young man commit suicide. Stunned by this event, she becomes involved in the search for the stranger's identity with Sheriff's Deputy Dan Bell who befriended her at the time of her niece's death. Although Helen is an optimistic, happy person, these three deaths have a profound impact on her life. She struggles with the idea of suicide and tries to find answers as to why these people chose to die. As Helen narrates the tale, she gently describes the beauty of the Wyoming countryside and reminisces about her childhood growing up on a ranch in the valley. Her love of nature and her reverence for life overshadow the sadness caused by the losses she experiences. "The Cabin on Green Creek" is an easy read that is like coming home. One will recognize immediately that the author knows and loves this Wyoming wonderland as much as she knows and loves the people who live there. With just a touch of nostalgic romance, this book is a breath of fresh air that is simplistic yet thought-provoking and well-written.
