The Winter Storm

Jacklyn Stone Thrillers: High Stakes Suspense with Heart, Book 1

By: Susan Specht Oram

Narrated by: Laura Jennings

Her conscience won't let her rest until she rescues those she left trapped in a psych ward.

Jacklyn Stone’s freedom is tainted with guilt. Rebuilding after her conniving son’s attempt to dispose of her in a secluded mental facility, the loyal sixty-something is haunted by memories of other sane residents abandoned by their families. Desperate to save those held against their will, she recruits a group of big-hearted friends for a daring Christmas Eve mission.

Risking a boat trip across frigid waters, Jacklyn and her friends sneak in under false pretenses and pray their front holds up to the medical staff’s scrutiny. But with an old nemesis, a deadly blizzard, and her vindictive offspring closing in, Jacklyn might be walking back into a padded cell.

Will her guts and grit prevail or is she sailing into an icy snare?

If you like tenacious heroines, complex family ties, and ticking clocks, then you’ll love this thrilling shock to the system.
