By Geraldine Ahearn "Author Geri Ahearn"
(Phoenix, AZ)
Inspired by the 1838 hanging of a fourteen
year old slave girl who once lived in the
Snelson-Brinker cabin, combined with the
deep roots of Missouri author, Richard Oliver
Snelson, a Masterpiece of historical fiction
was born. Captain Paintier lives with
disturbing, haunting memories of his boyhood
home. Under military orders, he must return to
his homeland as he relives his nightmares of
the past. Tormented by guilt, dedication to his
call of duty, his new love life and the burning
desire to cleanse his past sins, he finds himself
on a dark road to danger.
Snelson knew at that moment, the moment when
the hair on his arm and the back of his neck stood
up that he had to write her story. Surronded by
the log cabin built in 1834, he learned of the 14
year old that had been hung for what happened at
this cabin.
