Wild Woods

In the northeastern United States, the peaceful little town of Rosebud Falls looks like any other small city. Banks, churches, small businesses, an almost-daily newspaper, and a not-for-profit radio station. And seven Families who founded and have run the city for two hundred years. But Rosebud Falls also has a dark secret.

When Gee Evars wandered into town, he lost his memory in a daring rescue of a toddler in the raging Rose River. Now the man without a memory has become a force that even the Families need to reckon with. Someone is making deadly drugs out of the nuts that sustain the city’s economy. And children have disappeared under suspicious circumstances.

When the city votes to annex the area known as South Rosebud, Gee accompanies a small army of high school students and their parents to tear down the fence that has separated the cultivated hickory Forest from the Wild Woods.

This is where the sequel to the popular novel City Limits begins. Gee and his crew must find a way to tame the Wild Woods, uncover its secrets, and live to tell the story.

Not everyone in this peaceful community wants the truth known. As children who have been trafficked through the Wild Woods begin to show up with no memory, only Gee, the man without a memory, can relate to them and begin to draw them back into a life where they are cared for and protected.

Gee’s real work in Rosebud Falls has just begun.

Have you read City Limits?

“What a pleasure it was to seemingly travel to Rosebud Falls, the town in this book, and feel as though I was a member of the community. Because the characters are so well developed, the reader truly can be part of the story. Vivid images fill the mind as one can quickly read; it's hard to put down once started. The characters were so realistic; I started hearing my friends' voices and my own in the dialogue. No matter whom you relate to in the book, you'll find a connection. Anyone who has spent time in the woods and out in nature can identify with the importance of The Forest. I could see this book turned into a successful TV mini series that could get positive ratings during prime time hours. I'm looking forward to my next visit to Rosebud Falls in 2019. This book is worth the read!!!” — Colleen Piehl on Amazon
