“Sometimes saving the person you love can cost you everything.” Ask Kourtney Heintz. That is the theme of her new novel “The Six Train to Wisconsin” which she will read from and discuss in a Book Talk and Signing in the auditorium of the Silas Bronson Library, 267 Grand St. Tuesday, September 24th at 6:30 p.m.
The story centers around a woman named Kai Richter. When her telepathy spirals out of control, her husband Oliver takes her from Manhattan to the Wisconsin hometown he abandoned – where the secrets of his past are buried but refuse to stay dead. An emotionally powerful debut, “The Six Train to Wisconsin” pushes the bounds of love.
Years of working in financial services provided the perfect backdrop for Kourtney Heintz’s imagination to run amuck at night, dreaming up a world where out-of-control telepathy and buried secrets collide.Ms. Heintz writes speculative fiction for adults and, as K.C. Tansley, she writes Young Adult contemporary fantasy. Her debut novel, The Six Train to Wisconsin, was a 2012 Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award Semifinalist. “Publishers Weekly” called it “an emotionally intense, candid exploration of devotion, forgiveness, and acceptance.”
