Hope Frye is fifty-nine, homeless, jobless, and hopeless. She is about to trade a dubious future for a leap from the railing of the 18th Street bridge, when a strong hand grabs her coat collar. The hand belongs to Hank Jordan. Refusing to let Hope carry out her intentions, he offers her a job as his live-in housekeeper. On impulse Hope takes the job and from despair she starts a journey to an unknown destination. On the way she puts hopelessness behind her as her ego and self-esteem take on new life. Then violence and bloody murder erupt in the pleasant neighborhood she now calls home. A serial killer stalks her new friends and acquaintances and tries to frame Hank for his crimes. Uncertainty shakes her hard won self-confidence. Doubts and fears threaten her happiness until a dramatic conclusion ends uncertainty, and Hope learns the destination of her unexpected journey. | Hope's Journey by Elizabeth Fritz, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
