An adventure in the power of dreaming… a legacy with truths that are timeless gems. –C. Michael Smith, Ph.D., Clinical Psychologist, Author, Jung and Shamanism in Dialogue

When Veronika’s grandmother, storyteller and keeper of secrets, draws her young granddaughter into a story, Veronika has no idea that she’s about to step into a dreaming place, a strange world where magic floats in the chilly air.

Time works differently in and around this dream world. Stories unwind, and everything begins to feel as if it’s happening at once. Crows fly nearby. Challenges that existed decades ago may cycle back around at any moment.

Veronika’s grandmother answers an unexpected call to action. If she fails, the lives of people she loves may be at risk.

Too soon, story time is over for Veronika. Her power is stirring, and her legacy is calling. She must find a mysterious, ancient gift from her cherished deceased grandfather to help her find her way.

Inside this debut novelette–a deeply satisfying read, smaller than a novel and rich and complex as a fine square of chocolate–you can almost feel the many pathways of power that call to all of us if we choose to listen.
