The Lights of Home
Book One in the
Legends of the Sanctuary Tree Series

Archaeologist Jill Reade lives life on the fast-track, racing from deadline to deadline with little sleep.  In fact, the only slow thing in her existence is her old dog, Trilby.

Then one morning she receives a startling phone call from attorney Lane Bragg, who informs her that Miss Alice Norman, a woman Jill has only met once, has died and left her a bed-and-breakfast in the middle of nowhere.

Exasperated by yet one more thing to do, Jill decides she should at least go look the place over. After all, there’s a lot of local history and legend surrounding Belle’s Creek Station, and that appeals to her archaeological mind.

It’s also right on the border of the National Forest, where her next job site is. What she discovers in the small mountain community will cause her to question everything she holds dear…including her own independence.

Amanda Morgan, who has a B.A. in Anthrolopology from the University of Oregon and an M.A. in Prehistory from the University of Sheffield in England, grew up experiencing the value of extended families. She spent her early years in the area where her novel takes place.

“We kids, siblings and cousins alike, looked forward to an evening engrossed in the music, stories, and laughter of the old folks whenever kin came calling,” Amanda says. “My father was a mesmerizing storyteller. As my generation matured, the stories, once limited to only the humorous, expanded to touch on family tragedies and associated scoundrels. As an adult doing archaeological fieldwork, I came to realize how powerful family stories and local legends are in establishing our morés.”
