Forest Ranch, CA, October 04, 2023 --(PR.com)-- Author Kat Edwards has released her debut novel “When the Smoke Clears,” a mystery set in Australia and the US spanning three generations and six decades. Edwards crafts her narrative through compelling tales of human resilience following tragedy by marrying her practical experience as both an educational psychologist and advanced practice nurse with decades of experience in emergency, disaster and trauma management, with inspiring works of fiction.
The main narrative is the story of Talia Brighton, a young firefighter’s widow navigating the emotional devastation of her husband’s tragic and untimely death. As she struggles to raise her daughter alone, Talia begins questioning her own sanity and ability to parent when the shocking facts surrounding her childhood abduction and the decades-old mystery of her mother’s murder come back to haunt her.
Talia and her sister Naomi, a deeply cynical yet comical character, endeavor to sift through the ashes of their past to solve the mysteries of how they were hidden from authorities in an Australian orphanage for five years and how their cultural heritage and family fortune were stolen. “When the Smoke Clears” jumps between timelines and continents while building suspense and providing a thrilling climax and touching conclusion.
