The Ghosts of Aquinnah
Character Interview
Character Interview
What is your name?
Hannah Forrester
What do you look like?
I’m biracial and have light brown skin, brown curly hair, and large brown eyes. I’m tall and slender and people have told me I could have been a model, but I don’t know if I agree with that.
Where do you live?
I live in Boston, Massachusetts now. I grew up in Indianapolis, Indiana and moved to Boston when I got accepted to Harvard. I used to spend summers on Martha’s Vineyard with my parents when I was a kid.
What has been the most important event in your life?
Until recently I would have said the death of my parents. They died in a car accident three years ago. But now I’m thinking the first time I saw a really unusual woman on a Martha’s Vineyard webcam might end up being the answer.
What do you consider your greatest achievement?
I guess graduating from Harvard. Honestly I don’t think I’ve achieved all that much.
Have you ever been in love?
I thought I was, but I realize now I was just kidding myself. But I think I may be in love now.
Who is the person you respect the most? Despise the most?
I respected my parents. I was lucky to have them as they were wonderful people. I despise my ex-boyfriend Jon.
What goal do you most want to accomplish in your lifetime?
I want to be a writer.
Blurb:
A brilliant flash of light transcends through time.
Another
freezes a cloaked figure within a frame of salty mist as waves crash
against a rocky shore. Her harrowing expression shadows the beacon to a
pinprick.
By the next blaze, she is gone. Only the lighthouse remains.
Hannah’s
eyes blink in step with each heartbeat. Images of her deceased parents
and Martha’s Vineyard explode like firecrackers inside her mind.
She shakes her head.
For weeks this eerie woman dressed in nineteenth century garb has been haunting my webcam, but tonight she stared into my soul.
Why? ...
Who is she? ...
Casting aside months of research on historic lighthouses, Hannah drives to the coast and boards a ferry.
What is the strange connection she has to this mysterious woman suspended in time?
Hannah finds out.
But, it’s not at all what she expects...
Hannah unravels a century old murder.
