A Family Affair: Winter: Truth In Lies, Book 1 - Plot & Excerpts
Rain and hail pelted the town on and off for the better part of three hours, bombarding rooftops, ripping immature branches from their fragile frames, filling the streets, forcing man and animal alike to seek shelter. Christine peered through the slat of the white wooden blind. She was in Miriam’s living room, having her second cup of green tea and her third slice of poppy seed bread. The rain had settled to a steady drizzle, much less threatening than the earlier downpour. The winds had diminished, too, fizzling to sporadic mini-gusts that swirled and then died. It was her second night in Magdalena. Lily had gone to bed an hour ago but her presence still circled the room. They’d spent the day inside, playing checkers, Go Fish, Ker Plunk, making play dough spaghetti, smearing Crayola paint on a white sheet of paper, and coloring in a My Little Pony coloring book. Lily had chattered nonstop about everything: her new red shoes, the blue jay in the bird feeder outside, the loud horn in Nate’s truck, the wind and rain, but she always circled back to the same subject.
