"The Wandering Place" - Family secrets refuse to stay buried in the fragmented land of Alzheimer’s. As Kaye Elliott, along with her husband, Rick, interacts with her confused in-laws, she must navigate a muddle of facts and rumors.

Leaning on family bonds while preserving the dignity of her aging loved ones, Kaye may have to relinquish her dream of escaping her teaching career to become a published author. If she publishes her novel about the Elliott family history, she can achieve her dream and set the record straight.
