"I'm ready to go home now," Tinsley spoke through heavy breath. The crimson pool expanded across the snow, filling her nostrils with a sickening metallic smell. She closed her eyes and recalled dinner around the plankwood kitchen table, Addie and Matthew beside her. To see the sun rising behind Pan's Peak, shedding rays of light across the lawn of the Livings Ranch. Pleasant Valley had always been just that: pleasant. But that was before her parents disappeared. Before Matthew was lost, swallowed up in the perils of Alpin Wood. And---oh, God-- now this. No, things would never be the same, and there was no going home now. Thanks for checking out In Alpin Wood. I truly hope you enjoy!!! It has been a project of mine for three years, and I will post a new chapter each Monday until the story is completely posted. Love, Mary Katherine

The project is a series of government run facilities, tests and inspections to learn and replicate a rare condition Pandora has lived with for more than 90 years and yet still has the face of a 17 year old. But what Pandora didn't expect after all these years of tests and questions is that there is more to her than simply a rare genetic condition but the key between this world and another.

Do I jump? Or do I walk away?
