This is SUCH a gripping novel. And the rain, the rain. What a great character in itself! Unputdownable. Hats off @LisetteBrodey!

She stole his world. He's got 24 hours to get it back. ⏰
"Although many pages have nail-biting scenarios that are thrilling, the story has too much heart for it to be cast as a mere thriller." 💦

Pictures from rural France: a farmer fording the Marne river to take feed to his cattle on the other side. A routine for him, but the first time I’ve seen him do it. Lovely, isn’t it?

Son of the Serpent by Vashti QuirozVega @VashtiQV
🍂Born in autumn’s hues,
His mind an empty silence,
Longing to belong.
In a wicked world of hate,
He searches for his purpose.🍂

This appeal is from the daughter of a friend of mine. If you read it and feel you could donate something, it would be hugely appreciated. I have had the same problem with my own dog. Luckily, my vet recognised it immediately. Florence was not so lucky. gofund.me/3bf595baa
