Juliandra by Shawn Lewis Hill

Short Summary:

After witnessing the death of his beloved wife, Thomas Lee becomes trapped in a repeating nightmare which forces him to relive the experience each time he wakes from sleep. Once convinced he could prevent the tragedy before it happens, Thomas enters dangerous, unfamiliar territory to try and save his one true love, Juliandra.

Long Summary:

Saturday July 12th 2014, just beyond the city of Bangor, Maine, a small home rented by Thomas and Juliandra Lee, becomes the location where love and time are pitted against each other in a battle of hope. The married couple will wake at 8:36am and begin to share a delightful long awaited day together, until suddenly Juliandra is killed in front of Thomas exactly one hour later.

An emotionally distraught Thomas helplessly holds Juliandra’s dying body in his arms and in a rare and unexplainable moment his heart stops beating at the same time his beloved wife slips away. For a few brief seconds Thomas feels time pause… no sound, no movement and no pain, just the vision of Juliandra’s face and a tear that had fallen from her eye frozen in the air. A brief flash occurs just before his body collapses to the floor beside her.

After an ambulance crew revives Thomas moments later, he soon realizes that time is repeating itself whenever he wakes from sleep, causing him to relive that same morning when Juliandra was killed. He begins questioning his sanity, his beliefs and the people around him to find the answers he needs to save his wife before the clock strikes 9:36am.

Thomas ventures into unfamiliar territory where he must let go of his kind and passive nature while digging into the past of his wife’s father, Reggie Washington. Doing everything he can to keep from sleeping and avoid reliving that morning, Thomas works nonstop to link events which happened years in the past to the present day murder of his wife.

What inspired you to write your book?

The idea of two people unconditionally loving each other equally, intrigues me beyond imagination, and whenever my mind wanders, it’s usually in that direction.

Here is a short sample from the book:

“…nothing but saving Juliandra mattered to him at all. It was his mission to save her. It was his life on the line because without her he might as well be dead. Everything that meant anything to Thomas was back behind him lying on the ground. Her name was Juliandra and she needed him to succeed, to give everything he possibly could to stop this man and give her a chance to go on; even if it meant going on without him.”
