Be sure to check out Book Look in the latest edition of Life in the Finger Lakes magazine. A Sudden Gift of Fate was reviewed by Laurel C. Wemett who calls it an “engaging novel of two likable couples and how they handle the challenges in their lives.”
If you haven’t read this wonderful magazine before, be sure to give it a look. It truly is a celebration of Finger Lakes life, from the breathtaking scenery to the work of fine artisans, from the fascinating lakeside places to the bounty of their shores, fine produce to exquisite wines.
The Great Spirit forming the Finger Lakes, scratchboard by Margaret Hyland
The Iroquois, specifically the Seneca, Cayuga and Tuscarora tribes, lived in the upstate New York region called the Finger Lakes. They believed the Great Spirit Manitou rested his hand upon the earth in gratitude for their courage in battle and devotion.
Keuka Lake, where much of A Sudden Gift of Fate takes place, is Y-shaped.
The major Finger Lakes pictured here are, from left, Canandaigua, Keuka, Seneca, Cayuga and Skaneateles. Minor Finger Lakes include Otisco, Owasco, Conesus, Hemlock, Canadice and Honeoye.
