All Fall Down

As promised almost a year ago, I have finished the first version of All Fall Down....

All Fall Down is the story of Dr. Seeley Jones, an ED doc whose husband Michael** is shot and killed. Seeley finds him, bleeding out on the floor of their den. Shot by an intruder is what he tells her, then begs her to protect their daughters while Seeley fights to save him.

While Michael is undergoing surgery to try to save his life, Seeley discovers that Michael wasn't shot by an intruder, that his last words were a lie. The shooting was, in fact, a terrible accident, the shooter their four-year-old daughter, Alison. Having already inadvertently lied to the police, Seeley keeps the truth to herself...


All Fall Down is the story of that secret, the truth behind the tragic and fatal accident that kills Michael, a father, son and husband. The story tracks the impact of one lie, covered up then never corrected. It tracks that lie over 25 years and unveils the aftershocks the truth have on the survivors....

**Yes, his name was John before...

...Phew. Now, it's off to revisions......
