      About This Book

      This insightful first novel is a stunning suspense depicting the conflicts of the boomer generation’s lost loves and blind ambitions. As Anna Haggarty reaches the pinnacle of her academic career, a cold marriage to a plagiarizing professor and a troubled son chain her to her past. Enter Jules Randall, a rough-edged musician whom she met while traveling in Luxembourg twenty years earlier. With his free spirit, determination, and a book of poetry they had once shared, Jules re-enters Anna’s life, testing her loyalties and unmasking her own social prejudices. Pursuing the murder of a friend and fellow poet, Jules’ suspicions of Anna’s husband lead the three of them down a path of self-destruction none could have foreseen during that short time in Luxembourg.

      A Short Time in Luxembourg depicts a generation’s disappointments in their youthful decision-making and the resulting difficulty to control their own lives. The novel portrays Anna’s struggle to fend off these adversities and establish a life that will give her and her children true meaning and satisfaction.
