Still holding the carnations, I propel myself forward, pushing the crimson flowers into his face as hard as I can. The green stems bend and break into a thousand pieces upon impact, sending fragments of stems and leaves and carnation petals everywhere.
One act of violence changes everything in
Mary Salmon Lake's riveting new novel, Ride to the In-Between. As one woman comes to grips with a split-second decision, she will be forced to face her past as well as her future.
Yara has always been a loner, keeping to herself as much as possible while working shifts as a nurse at the local hospital. But a blossoming friendship with a new coworker seems promising, nudging Yara outside her comfort zone.
The friendship becomes more than she can handle, however, when her new friend is hospitalized and Yara is forced to take on caregiving duties.
Then one day while at the hospital, an unassuming elevator ride with a stranger quickly spirals out of control. Their chance encounter results in an act of violence that will change Yara's life forever.
A brilliant glimpse into Yara's horrific past and fragile psyche make Ride to the In-Between a compelling psychological drama.Also in
