Inside the Jacket

Dan’s arrival in Sleepyside--from his perspective.  And Regan’s.

Shadow of the Valley

What happened in Sleepyside while the Bob-Whites were in Iowa?  How did Dan get his job, and why was Andrew in Scotland?  Find out here.

The Spring Dance

At the end of Midnight Marauder, there was mention of a dance.  This is my take on that dance.  It also introduces some very special teenaged girls based on my dear friend Mary F’s real life daughters.


Collision Course

The stories in the section  deal with our friends the Bob-Whites during the summer of 1984.  Trials, tribulations, a few revealing connections, and a huge collision of the past and the present--hence the title.

Each to Their Own Path

Jim and Brian graduate. Tessa comes to Sleepyside for a visit--and maybe more.  Dan and Jim get an interesting summer job offer, and Mart and Dan are chosen for an exciting educational opportunity.

Mr. Maypenny’s past is revealed--in part--and he gives Dan something to think about while he’s away.

Rebuilding

After it all falls down is when you really need your family and friends.

Rewind

While Dan was figuring out how to rebuild his life, the Bob-Whites, Andrew and Regan were experiencing their own issues and adventures.  Here they are.

Loose Ends

As the Summer comes to a close, there are a few loose ends to tie.


A Year in the Life

Now that there are eight, follow them through a year of change, growth, reconciliation and justice.


Second Summer

This takes place during the summer of 1985--the second summer.  Three of the BWGs are working at camp.  Five are having an adventure in the Hawai’ian Islands, and a couple of adults are about to have the adventure of a lifetime.


Winds of Change

School has started again. Mart, Dan and Tessa are Seniors; Trixie, Honey and Diana are Juniors. It’s going to be a year of shocks, surprises and change.  Growing up, moving on.  Endings and new beginnings.  In short, it’s a year of transitions and changes.
