Pieces (A Merely Mortal Book)

Laura, a young American girl, is plagued by a difficult physical condition that no one can explain. She's forced into a confusing and unfair life until a revealing visit from her long-dead twin sister Taurus, who is simply a pawn in God's plan. Then Laura's mysterious illness is replaced by a secret that she can only share with the one whom she marries.

Maryanne is visited by a man named Alex. He swears she's his wife, but she's never seen him before. Though he seems frightening and possibly insane at first, what he tells her really sinks in somehow.

Face's life is turned inside-out by Maryanne. He's kidnapped and tortured, then kept from his successful career in the city by a mysterious young woman whom he finds tied to a wooden chair in his childhood home. Who caused the wounds on the young woman and then tied her up to leave her for dead?

This is a story set between the physical and meta-physical worlds. It embodies not only the journeys of the characters, but also the author's journey as a writer and person. This brings more life and growth to Pieces than ever before seen in literature.
