Synopsis
“A story of love and loss, Chasing Jordan is a quiet novel with a thunderclap at its heart. With this first novel, Ms. Boehringer gives notice that she is a writer to watch. This is my kind of novel. Whatever Heidi Boehringer writes next, I will read.”—Harry Crews
When Meg approaches home with her daughter in the back seat, she sees her husband spying on the neighbor, who is gardening in very short shorts. In this moment of distraction, she hits and kills her two-year-old son, Jordan.
With humor that is both provocative and totally unpredictable, Chasing Jordan shows how the road to forgiveness is both twisted and dangerous.
Heidi W. Boehringer studied creative writing at the University of Florida. Her most recent jobs were bartender, loan processor and project manager. She lives in southern Florida. Chasing Jordan is her first novel.
