Biography

At the start of World War II, Eden is living in Garibaldi, Oregon with her older brother Merton. Her twin brother Harry has recently moved to nearby Tillamook to serve as an air raid warden. Eden works for the Tillamook County Sheriff's Office as a secretary.

The first planned book will take place in February and March of 1942 as America shifts fully to a war footing. The second book will take place in Portland at the Kaiser Shipyards, where labor clashes with management and an influx of women and minorities in the workplace result in violence and even murder. Book three will center on the U.S. Navy's Tillamook Naval Air Station and the death of a flamboyant member of the Women's Air Service. The fourth novel is set later in the war, as a death blamed on one of Imperial Japan’s infamous fire balloons may be more than it seems.

Notes

↑ Note from Bill: I kid. Sort of. As the Appearances section above suggests, I have four possible book ideas in the works. I've begun historical research, have created initial character sketches for Eden, her two brothers, Sheriff Birch, and childhood friend Jonah. I've even written some rough draft chapters. All that said, it's possible this won't go much further, depending on other projects and my own constantly shifting interests.
