Here’s the set-up for Bonnie Turner’s Face the Winter Naked, currently FREE on Kindle:

Daniel Tomelin, a battle-worn veteran haunted by the carnage of the First World War, deserts his family in the Great Depression and goes on the road to seek relief from his soul-shaking trauma. He’s too proud to return and face his loving wife without a job, but LaDaisy is determined to care for their family alone, if that’s what it takes.

After leaving his loved ones to cope with a hell he helped create, does Daniel dare show his face again? Sometimes LaDaisy feels like killing him.

Face the Winter Naked is a story for today’s struggling economy and unemployed citizens, set in a tragic era when hope was sometimes all they had.

Bonnie Turner’s Face the Winter Naked is set during the Great Depression, but her story encompasses issues that reach far beyond that era and know no time constraints”war. Political strife. Economic collapse. Environmental catastrophe. Division of families. Cruelty and oppression. Poverty, inequity, and all the faces of prejudice. But it is also about love. And faith. And strength. And hope, forgiveness, and perseverance.

Face the Winter Naked provides an engrossing read in which Turner interweaves history, geography, and a compelling love story. More than that, it is a story that looks beyond the surface, delving into the inner workings of the human mind, “a powerful narrative that illuminates larger issues of humanity that are timeless and volatile and just as apropos today as decades ago. “  ~ Karen Donley-Hayes, M.A.I.S., author and editor

From the reviewers:

Face the Winter Naked is a gorgeously written and evocative novel of an earlier economic crisis: the Great Depression. Readers looking for a stunning read, intelligent and emotional on every level, will not be disappointed.”  ~ Lauren Baratz-Logsted, author of Crazy Beautiful and The Education of Bet

“Bonnie Turner’s Face the Winter Naked is a beautifully written tale of strength, hope, love, and despair. Within the pages of this book, the era of the Great Depression unfolds into sharply focused reality, and the people who were impacted the most by that time of financial desperation come to life. Ms. Turner is an excellent storyteller, and I found myself completely immersed in her narrative.”  Bobby @ BookWenches.com

Bonnie Turner was born on Halloween in Independence, Missouri, at the height of the Great Depression, and currently resides in Wisconsin. She is a grandmother and great-grandmother. Her interests are many and varied, and include astronomy, geography, yoga and metaphysics. She is a jack-of-all-trades, a Mensa *almost,* a classical music & jazz aficionado.

Turner’s first novel for young readers was The Haunted Igloo, published in 1991 by Houghton Mifflin. After that book was published, she visited grade schools with a handmade Eskimo doll and encouraged students to keep reading and writing–and offered “polar bear” hugs along with her autograph. Among her favorite fan letters are these gems: “Mrs. Turner, I’d give you a million dollars for this book!”; “Dear Mrs. Turner, Thank you for getting me out of sixth hour!!!”; “Dear Mrs. Turner, Thank you from all the lead in my pencil!” What great kids, those middle-grade students!

The author next published Spirit Lights (sequel to The Haunted Igloo), Down the Memory Hole (about a boy and his grandfather, an Alzheimer’s patient), and Footprints in Time: A Walk in Sacajawea’s Moccasins.
