Imminent Danger - Part One

Colorado Springs, circa 1970 Lightning flashes across the night sky of our Rocky Mountain hideaway. It is quickly followed by a boom of thunder that rattles the wafer thin windows of the old barn in Glen Eyrie where I am staying at a girl's summer camp.

Imminent Danger - Part Two

By Donna Tallman
