Dear Librarian,
After growing up in Japan and the Philippines in the 1940s, W.W.II became an integral part of my life. My passion resulted in 25 years of research for this historical W.W. ll novel, Now Silence. NOW SILENCE captures the mood of remote Santa Fe, New Mexico as it waits out W.W.II for the return of her men held in Japanese prison camps. It gracefully carries the reader back and forth between Nagasaki and Santa Fe, weaving in the lives of the gritty women who wait for their men. "I couldn't put it down - -so much fascinating and important history supporting bigger than life characters....their story is painfully close to today's returning veterans" Jane Fletcher Geniesse, "American Priestess" and "Passionate Nomad"
NOW SILENCE touches on strong issues of love, religion, patriotism, loyalty, war, shame, family and war. 'Her characters...are bold, energetic and electrifying. It is intense, sexy, poignant, dark, humorous and altogether engaging from the opening page to the final moments.' Jordon Richardson, Blogcritics Magazine
Many Thanks,
Tori Warner Shepard
