Chasing Windmils: A Linden Corners Novel

by Joseph Pittman

Several years have passed since Brian Duncan was "just passing through" the tiny village of Linden Corners, and yet he remains, now a resident fixture. So it is with trepidation that he ventures beyond its borders and back to his old life in New York City to attend the wedding of his best friend. There, he runs into his ex-girlfriend, Maddie, the woman at the center of his life-change. But just what is Brian's new life? He has devoted himself to caring for his young daughter, Janey Sullivan, now ten, and as precocious as ever. It's time, though, for Brian to answer the question of his uncertain future. He finds it, of course, at the base of the village's landmark, the windmill, which continues to give voice to his beloved Annie's soul. Brian not only finds his purpose, but he may have also just met the woman who will at last heal his heart. CHASING WINDMILLS takes the story of Brian Duncan and all the residents of Linden Corners to new, and inspiring heights. Favorite characters appear, and new friends are made, as the heart-warming series finds renewed hope. And at last, the story of why the windmill was first built is answered, and it is a message of love that carries even today, nearly two centuries since the wind first swept through its spinning sails. THE PAST NEVER FORGETS. CHASE THE FUTURE.
