A widow, stepmom, daughter, and active church member, Susan
enjoys reading, couponing, gardening, and searching for small treasures in
antique shops.
About the book: A trip to post-terrorized Washington, D.C. in 2025 and a
buggy accident in Bird-in-Hand, PA set in motion events that expose a
diabolical plan to destroy the Christian community. Ellie and John Zimmerman find themselves
embroiled in a life-threatening investigation, fighting a shadowy enemy.
The small community is shattered when the unthinkable
occurs. Will family, friends, and neighbors band together or allow fear to
prevent them from taking action?

"That's it! That's your book! And you'll write it in
four months and call it Ghosts of the Past."
It's not often that someone, especially one's husband, makes
such a startling declaration. We were discussing an experience I had in Gettysburg eight months
before. I "heard" the voices of the forefathers as echoes fading in
the distance. There were a couple of problems: 1) I had no idea what to write,
and 2) I was a non-fiction writer, not a novelist.
Yet, I couldn't shake the sense that something important had
occurred, both in Gettysburg
and in my heart. I sat down at the computer and started writing. In exactly four
months, I held a manuscript in my hands with a revised title of, "Echoes
of the Past."
I soon discovered my skills didn't match my enthusiasm for
the project and set about learning how to write fiction. In the midst of this
process, my husband was diagnosed with leukemia and died 14 months later. Six
months after that, I broke my elbow and went through two surgeries.
Once some semblance of order returned to my life, I picked
up the thread of my book. I was determined to finish it, not only in my
husband's memory, but also because the story burned within me.
After eight years of rejection, hardship, and much
discouragement, the re-titled book, "The Moses Conspiracy," was
released by Helping Hands Press (an ACFW-approved, royalty publisher) as an
e-book. I'm now working on the second book in the trilogy.
As I look back, I can see many of those rejections kept me
from going down a wrong path. Throughout the years, I learned much about
patience, perseverance, and trusting the Lord with every aspect of my life.
To God be the glory! Great things He has done.
