Red Spear - New Release!

I landed in the dry, almost oppressive heat of Africa with a suitcase full of broken dreams and unkept promises. That battered suitcase was getting heavier by the minute as I stood there sweating to the oldies while waiting for a Mrs. Westfield to arrive to take me to the village co-op I'd only recently volunteered to help.

Actually, volunteer isn't the right word. It makes me sound magnanimous or philanthropic, which isn't really the case. I wish it were, but I've never really been one to donate anything more than the almighty dollar. This was more of an emotional safe house for me as I navigated through the shark-infested waters of a divorce court bent on making sure I walked away with pennies in my pocket and my self-esteem in the gutter.

I needed some place to clear my head - some place other than the ruins of a carefully constructed life that had succumbed to the wrecking ball of infidelity. I could have escaped to New York, Chicago, or even Seattle, but our very large country was suddenly not big enough for me and my pain to share with my disloyal husband, who had notions of me exiting our marriage with just the clothes on my back...if even that.

What a total rat turd.
