Please Come Back To Meis another remarkable collection by an author theNew York Timeshas called “a writer with an unsparing bent for the truth.” In “The Nurse and the Black Lagoon” a woman tries to understand why her teenage son has been accused of a disturbing crime. In “Testimony” an adult daughter visiting her father does everything she can to keep herself from remembering what she believes she cannot bear. A man returns to his hometown in “Dear Nicole” to face the realization that he married the wrong woman out of misplaced guilt. “Oregon” portrays the internal struggle of a woman who, having years ago betrayed a secret entrusted to her by her best friend, is tempted to repeat the mistake with the same friend’s daughter. And in the collection’s novella, “Please Come Back To Me,” a young widow seeks faith and comfort—in both natural and supernatural realms—after her husband’s death leaves her alone to care for their infant son. On the surface, Jessica Treadway’s stories offer realistic portrayals of people in situations that make them question their roles as family members, their ability to do the right thing, and even their sanity. But Treadway’s psychic landscapes are tinged with a sense of the surreal, inviting readers to recognize—as her characters do—that very little is actually as it seems.

Ultimately, instead of protecting her sister, she, unfortunately, turns to have a hand in her sisters death. After burying her sister without the knowledge of her parents in Zimbabwe, she decides to hide herself in South Africa from her parents, her fianc, and goes to look for the love of her life while she is three months pregnant. With the help of her lost love who could not bear her children because of the injury he sustained during circumcision, she returns home, together with her newborn twins, to Zimbabwe to reconcile with her parents and to ask for their forgiveness.

A man, who at times, was consumed by intense hatred, particularly of Senmut and King Solomon. A desire for revenge which at times drove him mad. Yet he was capable of great love, tenderness, and kindness to his wives and family, providing a supreme atmosphere of family life enjoyed by everyone. It is time this great romance is known to the world. This book, though offered in a fictionalized form, is factually correct in every aspect. Enjoy the peculiarities of Menkheperre Thutmose, which has never been told before. But enjoy how his love for his wives transcends all else. ROYSTON MOORE
