Anna's hand holding the letter trembled as her vision rocked, going in and out of focus. She felt as though she was falling backward and at the same time rolling forward, expecting to land face first on the floor. She put her hand on the table to brace herself. She no longer heard the song birds in the buckeye tree outside the window, or the hoof beats on the cobblestones passing the front door, or any sound at all. The world around her ceased to exist?only the paper with Henry?s written words: his own account of what happened during the past year. The entire time, she?d known he wasn?t telling her everything?but this?she could never have imagined any of it. The hard fact was, Henry will never escape the truth. 1885 Crossings gives us another opportunity to return to the world of Henry, Anna, and Langsford. A.E. Wasserman?s writing is beautifully done?tense and uncomfortable. The ending gave me a chill. - Chuck Sambuchino, Bestselling Author
