About the Book
Kyle has been haunted by a secret that her dying mother kept and killed for. A secret she can no longer avoid. The current won’t allow it. The current is the energy of the universe, and as Kyle learns of her overbearing mother’s impending death, she feels the current pushing her to discover what's been troubling her soul and stealing her joy. As the current begins to whip, she can’t run, hide or hurt herself enough to derail what’s coming for her. And she knows that whatever it is, aims to devour her whole. Battles with alcohol, bulimia and relationships rage, and the life she’s struggled to build as the face of a prominent Washington, D.C. non-profit begins to fray. So begins a race against time, from New York to Barbados, to drag family secrets into the light. When her unspeakable truth is revealed all of her dark hauntings finally make sense. In a powerful final scene that’s a collision of her past and her future, Kyle will be literally left adrift in a sea that carries her to the treacherous place between this life and the next. And what becomes of her, will be for the current to decide.
