Divine Tragedy
Savannah Carlin discovers the value of true friendship and her own inner strength after accidentally hitting a close friend’s small child with her car. She finds herself facing possible jail time after her former friend decides to pursue both criminal charges and financial restitution. Throughout the trial preparations with her best friend, Meredith, an Austin Defense attorney, we learn more about her past marriage to a man battling his own mental health issues. We discover how she struggles to balance raising teenagers alone after a painful divorce while managing a growing Marketing career. Her overwhelming desire to connect with friends and find love again are the driving force behind her journey.
In our current society where talking about mental health is becoming less taboo, Divine Tragedy is an adult fiction novel that tackles the painful emotional toll endured by those closest to individuals battling depression and bipolar disorder. I am currently querying this completed manuscript to be published soon.
