Sand Dollar speaks to emotions and ideas that are common
to us all, regardless of our location or time period. Men and
women enjoy it equally.
Sand Dollar’s basis is historical - Key West in the mid-1800's.
The story is pure imagination. It tells about Mary Thorne who,
bored by conventional life on Green Turtle Cay, yearns for
independence, travel, and adventure. She reluctantly agrees
to marry Richard Randall, a wrecker, thinking she will spend
the rest of her life avoiding the church bazaars her sister dotes on. Less than a year after Mary’s wedding, a
massive hurricane brushes the Bahamas and devastates Key West. Mary moves with her house and her
husband to Key West, ambitious for expanded opportunities. But travel takes her far from the security of
home. Adventure involves danger. And independence involves demanding situations and hard decisions.
I know you’ll enjoy the book. You can buy it from the publisher at outskirtspress.com, on amazon.com or
barnesandnoble.com, or if you’re in Key West I’ll be happy sign your copy. Just email me at
jane@janenewhagen.com to let me know you're coming and we'll arrange to meet.
Sand Dollar will soon be a readers’ group favorite and I’ve created discussion questions that I know you’ll
enjoy when you read the book with your friends.
Please visit my biographical page where I’ll tell you about how I came to write Sand Dollar and share some
secrets about life in the Southernmost City and Key West history.
