Blind Turn

by Cara Sue Achterberg

Liz Johnson single-handedly raised an exemplary daughter—honor student, track star, and all-around good kid—despite the disapproval of her father and her small town. Could that same teenager be responsible for the death of the high school’s beloved football coach? This is Texas, where high school football ranks right up there with God. While the legal battle wages, the public deals its own verdict, and Liz must find a way to save her daughter, and in so doing--herself.

Hear Us Roar! Debut Author Podcast

Now a resident of the Tar Heel state, Michele Levy lived a nomadic life growing up, living in
Wisconsin, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, and Virginia. Her college degree in history and her
love of language and literature steered her to UNC for graduate studies, where the field of
Comparative Literature provided the perfect avenue to explore all her interests. Once she moved
to New Orleans with her husband, she become an assistant professor, teaching and publishing on
Russian and European authors while raising three children, and eventually chairing her
department. Her life-long passion for the distinctive richness and vitality of the Balkan culture, a
painful amalgam of both East and West, led her to study and eventually publish on the literature
and history of that region and ultimately, provided the rich background for her debut novel.

Listen to the interview with Michele.
