About the Book

Fiction based on a true story. By the age of 12, Walther Colt was headed down a dark and dangerous road. Both family circumstances and choices played a role in this young man's fateful journey. Convicted of trying to kill the police chief at the age of 15, Walt faces years in adult prison, his only friend - a young Mennonite girl from a strict religious background. Why would Cali, a simple country girl, befriend and stay connected with this angry, rebellious man, whose tragic life was so antithetical to that of her own? How many roadblocks will it take for Walt to live a life without bars? How many roadblocks will it take before he finds the redemption he so desperately seeks?
About the Author: Born into a Mennonite family, Carrie spent her childhood in a small farming community in southern Manitoba. With only a few remaining inhabitants, Horndean was once a thriving little community. At one time Main Street boasted two grocery/general stores, two auto mechanic garages, grandfather's feed mill, grain elevator, egg grading station, post office, church and school. Grandpa's barn and homestead still stand, now owned and cared for by strangers. At the age of fifteen, Carrie's family moved to Steinbach, Manitoba. After she married, she and her husband moved to British Columbia, where they still make their home in charming Abbotsford. Carrie's interest in the arts began as a young girl. An imaginative child, she loved to draw, read, write and listen to stories. Their school library consisted of a mere three short shelves of books, not nearly enough to satisfy her need for creative reading and story-telling. After school, Carrie would often run home to sit down beside their old fashioned, console radio and listen to Aunt Ollie - a half hour program where Aunt Ollie read fables, mysteries, and other delightful tales. Carrie's passion for storytelling and desire to create continued after marriage and children. She took several writing courses as well as pursuing painting, drawing and filmmaking. She writes for both adults and children, fantasy and adventure being her favorite. The story of Walt was a story she had on her heart to write since his death in 2008. It is her hope and belief that this redemptive story will be an encouragement and give hope to the reader. Carrie is an ordained minister with a M.Min (Professional Writer) and D.Min (Fine Arts & Media) Other books by the author: The Ryder, 1991, A Children's Fantasy Adventure. Newfies to the Rescue, 2000, Tales of the Newfoundland Dog. Treasure Trap, a sequel to The Ryder, is in process.
