Photographs of October: A Historical Thriller from America's Heartland

Olivia Norwich isn't bothered by the disappearances in the sleepy university town of Warren, Kansas. As a photography instructor, she's preoccupied with an impossible deadline for the town's Harvest Festival at the end of October. Her research for the project takes her back in time to Warren's tumultuous past, and when ghosts from that era begin to stir, Olivia discovers that the past and present are more entangled than she ever knew.

It's 1897, and Evelyn Weatherford must navigate the delicate balance of the reality of life on the prairie and her dream of attending the town's university. Her actions inadvertently land her in the middle of a feud between two families whose bitter rivalry is brought to a head during Evelyn's lifetime.

A novel about ancestral memory and how choices can echo across the centuries.
