The Golden Cocoon

a nostalgic novel...

In the middle of the country, in the middle of the century, Tess Kincaid experiences trauma few people, thankfully, will every experience. She keeps her secrets buried, until her life unravels years later, when she finds herself in a villa in Tuscany.

Perhaps the memoirs encased in the villa itself will provide her with the direction to rediscover her passion and her energy for life. Finding a way through life can take mysteriously circuitous routes that transcend time, geography and our everyday perception of reality.
