The Past Catches Up with the Present in a Tranquil Farming Community
August 08, 2006 (PRLEAP.COM) Entertainment News
It is not difficult to understand why Yvonne A. Hendrickson’s Seeds of Sin has readers asking for a sequel to this intensely emotional page-turner. A well-meaning farmer in the Yakima Valley of Washington State troubled by the climate, his Mexican migrant workers’ plight, his dying wife and secrets concerning his adopted son – all cropping up late in his middle age. Adultery, suicide and murder are some of the effects that ripple across Walter’s community like a “wheat field in the wind.” “Eat the apple that falls in your garden…do not try to learn where it came from and you will be content.”
About the Author
Born and raised in the historic town of Deadwood, in the Black Hills of South Dakota, Yvonne’s early years of married life were in Lewiston, Idaho, then to Washington State, where she and husband Ken raised two boys and still reside. Yvonne’s urge to write had many false starts, never finding the time to become serious with writing until age 63. The interest in migrant workers’ plight and knowledge gained from farming friends, combine in her first novel, fiction interspersed with realism, creating intrigue and suspense. Other novels are in the works, with promise of more to follow. Yvonne has started the sequel to Seeds of Sin.
