About the Book

"A Bridge To Cross" is historical fiction set in 1927. The story begins in Buffalo, NY when the lives of young, vigorous Leopold Throckmorton and vivacious Phryne Truffaut are driven to drastic change by devious deception and the eruption of violence. Phryne and Leopold have kept steady company for almost two years, and are a dynamic, effervescent pair. The subject of marriage was brought up more than once, but they never made any definite plans. They seemed to shy away from any sense of permanence in their relationship. Secretly, they feared that marriage would be the end of the fun. Neither of them desired their lifestyle to change; at least not yet. There was simply too much to do, so much to enjoy, and, besides, life so far has been an endless party. Phryne relished her sexuality and would tease her man at every opportunity. A soft touch here, a quiet whisper there, or a gentle hand upon his thigh was not only a temptation for him, but a thrill for her. He knew it, and sometimes would pretend to ignore her with detached indifference. This would only make her tantalizing behavior even more direct, and his playful rejections stronger. It was foreplay that could last for hours, and always ended with passionate, prolonged and fervent rapture. Phryne and Leopold share an avaricious love of life that was energetically practiced as the accepted norm in 1927. Living and loving in the "Roaring Twenties" was exactly that: experiencing life with a resounding roar. Forces beyond their control eventually made the roar even louder and dangerously deafening.
About the Author: Edward Hackemer lived in Western New York for 55 years before retiring and moving to North Georgia. His life experience includes nearly countless trans-Atlantic trips to Europe; employment history runs from paperboy to truck driver to the US Government Service. He spent several years overseas, is a veteran of the US Army, and happily married since 1968. He met his wife in Norway, and she was naturalized after they returned to the United States. He is currently enjoying retirement with his wife of 40+ years, his son, daughter (in-law), and two grand daughters. During the writing of 'A Bridge To Cross', 'In A Cream Packard' and 'The Katydid Effect' the author drew not only from personal memories, but steeped himself in period music and culture: 1925 through 1967 rock and roll, blues, jazz, movies, television, and popular music as well as extensive research into contemporary retail products, services and prices. The novels are historically correct to the timeline of the book, with passing reference to relevant news and sports. While he drew on much of his personal memories and experiences, they were factually verified and time authenticated. The author hopes that readers will enjoy the story as much as he enjoyed writing it. Life is grand. Remember. That's important.
