Death is what you make it. . . .
Eleanor never wanted to leave the daughter she loved so much. The overpowering urge to wander -- to search, without knowing what she sought -- drove her away. She left little Cassidy in her family's loving care. But Cassidy and the others died in an accident before Eleanor could find her way home.
Now, they are all reunited, in an afterlife where nothing is truly lost: places once loved may be revisited, memories relived and even shared. Surely this is a place where they can understand and heal. And yet, the restlessness that shaped Eleanor's life still haunts her in death -- and now, she find herself dreaming of a man she never met.
Somehow, she must solve the mystery of her life -- or none of them will be at peace.

About the
author
Karen A. Wyle was born a
Connecticut Yankee, but eventually settled in Bloomington, Indiana, home of
Indiana University. She now considers herself a Hoosier. Wyle's childhood
ambition was to be the youngest ever published novelist. While writing her
first novel at age 10, she was mortified to learn that some British upstart had
beaten her to the goal at age 9.
Wyle is an appellate attorney, photographer, political junkie, and mother of two daughters. Her voice is the product of almost five decades of reading both literary and genre fiction. It is no doubt also influenced, although she hopes not fatally tainted, by her years of law practice. Her personal history has led her to focus on often-intertwined themes of family, communication, the impossibility of controlling events, and the persistence of unfinished business.

Me thinks
“What if” is one question that has haunted
many of us most of the times. We try and imagine situations of the past giving
them different endings and gauging the difference it would have made to the
situation. Wander Home by Kayne A. Wyle is one book where we get to see what we
imagine when it comes to our loved ones.
It is a very touching tale of love, romance
and family set in the afterlife. The only thing is one needs to look beyond the
possibility of it occurring in real life. For the characters are very well
defined, quite relatable and the language easy to connect to, making it an
enjoyable read.
I would recommend this to all people who
enjoy fantasy fiction purely for the beauty of the author’s imagination.
