Today, I am thrilled to hand my blog over to a good friend of mine and an extraordinarily talented author - LINDA LEE GREENE who is as excited as hell to tell you all about her fantastic new novel "CRADLE OF THE SERPENT". So, without further ado, take it away Linda. 
Picture
​As a child on the farm of my maternal grandparents in Southern Ohio where I was born, and while carted around on the shoulders of my teenage uncles, or on the broad tall backs of our horses, my view of life began atop those high places. From those lofty vantage points, the fairytale landscape and the storybook yarns spun by the hill people there impressed my mind's eye and ear so indelibly that they emerged over the years as images in my artwork and as the bedrocks of my last three books. The first of the three, “Guardians and Other Angels,” (goo.gl/imUwKO) is a novel of historical fiction blended with the true story of my Southern Ohio ancestors during the early to middle Twentieth Century. It has been compared to Pulitzer Prize winners, “The Grapes of Wrath,” and “Angela’s Ashes,” as well as to Jeannette Walls’ “Half Broke Horses.” My novella for young readers titled “Rooster Tale” (goo.gl/vNq32g) is full of moral content, humor, and endearing illustrations by award-winning artist Edith D. Wadkins. It explores an unhappy consequence of a young boy’s temper tantrum.

My current book “Cradle of the Serpent” (goo.gl/i3UkAV) is a novel whose protagonist is a contemporary North American archaeologist named Lily Light who is involved in a project at the “Great Serpent Mound” in Adams County, Ohio, USA. It is an endeavor that sets my archaeologist on a remarkable journey through time to the prehistoric period of the American Indian architects of the mysterious serpent effigy, and specifically to a young Indian woman named White Flower.
“Cradle of the Serpent” is written in the voices of Lily Light and her psychotherapist Michael Neeson. A patient of Michael’s, Lily’s therapy centers on her estrangement from her husband Jacob, also an archaeologist at work on a project in Arizona. Lily’s suspicion that Jacob is involved in an extramarital affair is confirmed as the grisly details of his double life emerge following a violent shooting at the edge of the Navajo Nation, an incident that leaves him permanently paralyzed from his shoulders down.
During several of Lily’s therapy sessions with Michael, Lily experiences dream-states or time-travels in which she takes on the bearing of White Flower, and through the process, finds her way to the other side of her shattered life wrought by Jacob’s infidelity and its numerous catastrophic consequences. 

I am mother of a son and a daughter, and grandmother of two grandsons. I live in Columbus, Ohio, USA and spend time when possible at my family’s lakeside cottage in Hawthorne, Florida, USA. In addition to being a best-selling author, I am an award-winning artist. An extensive exhibition of my artwork can be viewed at www.gallery-llgreene.com.
