    About this ebook

    It's three years after Isa's divorce, and her life has become stagnant. She longs to see the world. While searching the internet, she is drawn to a centuries-old inn on the outskirts of Paris. To the shock of her family and collogues at the elementary school where she is the librarian, she announces she is quitting her job and buying a one-way ticket to France. She does not expect her new life to begin with meeting the inn's resident ghost, a doppelganger of herself. Nor does she expect to meet the inn's only other guest, a handsome Scotsman named Daniel, who is determined to help her discover what the ghost's appearance means. The innkeeper, Claire, calls it destiny.

    Author

    J. Schlenker

    J. Schlenker, a late blooming author, lives with her husband out in the splendid center of nowhere in the foothills of Appalachia where the only thing to disturb her writing is croaking frogs and the occasional sounds of hay being cut in the fields. Her first novel, Jessica Lost Her Wobble, published in December 2015, was selected as a finalist in the William Faulkner - William Wisdom Creative Writing Competition. One of her short stories, The Missing Butler, received honorable mention in the first round of the NYC Competition. The Color of Cold and Ice is her second novel. Upcoming Works are: The Innkeeper on the Edge of Paris and The Missing Butler and Other Life Mysteries (A Collection of Short Stories).
