Until the Deep Water Stills: An Internet-enhanced Novel combines a traditional print novel with a companion web site (
www.mdyetmetaphor.com/blog). The print novel itself stands on its own and can be read and appreciated as a traditional novel.
The companion web site adds a distinct, three dimensional identity for each of the four main characters. It includes additional plot lines not found in the print novel and features text, photographs and audio recordings. Each chapter in the print novel has a corresponding entry in the companion web site.
Novel Synopsis
For Katherine Orr the words “I love you” are not enough. Only a demonstrative expression of her husband Jayce’s love can rescue their relationship. But Jayce’s personal demons prevent him from giving her this even though he knows she is all that stands between him and a descent into chaos.
Simultaneously, Bryan struggles to repair the breach of love in his life caused by the death of his daughter. But his wife, Jayce’s sister, grows ever more distant. Charismatic social activist Faith, who longs for love but fears she will loose herself in it, unwittingly becomes the catalyst for change in the lives of all four characters.
The paths of these four converge toward a tragic event as each struggles to decipher the intricacies of love lost and love found. Each discovers in their own way that love is the living core of human existence and that how we love defines who we are.
