Eden Waits, by Maryka Biaggio

March 3, 2020 By Jan

Maryka BiaggioMaryka Biaggio is the author of a new book, Eden Waits, a work of historical fiction published by Sunbury Press.

Eden Waits is based on the true story of Michigan’s utopian experiment. In 1893, Abraham and Elizabeth Byers launch Hiawatha Colony, a product-sharing community designed to support its members through self-sufficiency. But can this cooperative community withstand internal strife, the harsh wilds of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, and the antagonism of the outside world?

Callie Cooper’s first important job as a P.I. has her traveling to Newport, Oregon, where her grandmother’s cousin has been arrested for murdering her husband. Callie’s uncle Rudy has been grooming her in the business; but since he is unavailable to help, he’s letting her use his old beach cabin while she works the case.

Last year, Gary, the boy next door, professed his love for her; and she’s still trying to sort out her feelings for him. And now he’s accompanying her to Newport.
