Abstract:
"The green house is more than a greenhouse. Seven flowers, seven colors, seven meanings, and one 37-year-old secret-- the green house is the keeper of it all. Its creator, Girard Remington, is a fragile elderly man whose life was shattered by a tragedy nearly four decades ago. And when tragedy strikes again-- this time to his beloved wife, Miriam-- he struggles to cope. The pain of the two interwoven tragedies drives Girard to places of his psyche he desperately tries but is unable to escape. As the only place that offers him solace and tranquility, he turns to the green house as his savior from the regret and the agony and the heartache-- and with it, he discovers the power behind it not even he knew existed. And if he listens closely enough, he may be offered the greatest miracle of all-- hope for a second chance."--Back cover

<div id="brtext_194909477" class="commentText" style="unicode-bidi: embed; padding: 3px 5px 5px 0px; border: none; color: #111111; font-family: Verdana, Arial, sans-serif;">A surprising book where the suspense is masterful and leads us into a story of senseless disappearance, bringing to the surface an old tragedy which is an unintentional accident, having caused incurable trauma.
The atmosphere of the story is oppressive, and we slip into the heart of the hero's vacillating psyche. The choice of words is fantastic and you can feel the gamut from fear to horror at times.
A fascinating story that we will not forget!
The sudden disappearance of his wife plunges her husband crescendo into a descent into hell very realistic, sometimes macabre, but unbearable so much the words strike us deep within us.
The enigma escalates further as a burnt and inendifiable body is found in the couple's own car!
Captivating!</div>
