I've had a lifelong fascination with the Neanderthals. In the last ten years, groundbreaking research has added to our understanding of our ancient human cousins and has confirmed that many people alive today carry a bit of Neanderthal DNA. The idea came to me to write about a woman who has a lot more Neanderthal in her than the rest of us... Anthropologist Bronwyn Bloom notices a disturbing incident in a local park but doesn't intervene. When she learns later that she was the only witness to the abduction of a young boy, she takes it upon herself to find the boy. Bronwyn has no choice but to face her own fears, and by doing so, she finally learns who she really is: Her obsessive search triggers deep memories of her own prehistoric ancestor, a Neanderthal girl who lived 35,000 years ago. Kirkus Indie Reviews praised NIGHTSONG as “…a true page turner…and an enjoyable, satisfying escape with a unique twist.”
