My Ominous Adventures At True Blue Farm, The Secret Behind The Mirror is a nostalgic historical fiction with a paranormal twist. The heroine stumbles on a secret that reaches beyond the limits of memory and traditional time limitations. The setting is an eighty-five-acre turn of the century farm located in the picturesque Blue Mountains of north- eastern Pennsylvania. This narrative journey begins on August 18, 1955, the day that Hurricane Diane made it's mark on the Forks of the Delaware Region of northwestern New Jersey and northeastern Pennsylvania and transports the reader to a time when infamous gangsters earned a living selling illegal liquor in Speakeasies. The Author presents the historical facts for the purpose of educating young readers in a manner that is accurate and entertaining. One point is certain; life was a little too ominous, certainly eventful and especially heartwarming at True Blue Farm.
