The 9/11 Series--One Tuesday Morning

     One Tuesday Morning, is the first book in the 9/11 Series; it follows the emotionally gripping journey of several people whose lives were directly affected by the tragedies of 9/11.
     Karen says it was very difficult to write One Tuesday Morning.  For the ones touched personally by the attacks on America, know that Karen's heart grieves with you.  Karen prayed this book might be sensitive and compassionate and it might help you grieve.  Karen's father asked-if it was too soon for a story like One Tuesday Morning.  Karen replied; as a nation we have shared our shock and our anger.  Now it is time to share our grief.
     One Tuesday Morning is the emotionally, gripping story of a devoted firefighter, and a driven business man, strangers from opposite sides of the country with the same face.  They meet in the stairwell of the South Tower that fateful Tuesday morning, but only one of them will leave the building alive.  Battling amnesia, the survivor must learn how to be the husband and father he never was, by living in the shoes of a man who no longer is.  Ultimately he will only find his way home because of the love and faith of one very special woman.
