Local Writer Earns Publisher’s Choice
(Hilton Head, SC, May 2007)
--- Deb Welch, an island resident, published her first novel about a
beleaguered Navy SEAL who returns to South Carolina.
Flashback
has readers turning pages as
bold, entertaining characters emerge in a fast-paced Low Country adventure.
-
Nate Dunlevy
survived the explosion, but the death of a young suicide
bomber still haunts him.
-
In spite of her
rejection, his desire for Eve O'Connor distracts him from
the horrific memories.
-
When Eve is
brutalized, Nate's reaction exposes the crimes of a hate
group and they retaliate.
Flashback
is available at Amazon.com, Barnes & Noble, and other fine booksellers.
Since 1986, Deb has been intrigued by the
nature and history of the Low Country including the cultural blend of rural
communities, resort living, and military presence in the region. Her father,
who was a proud Marine, graduated from South Carolina’s Parris Island
Bootcamp before serving four years in the Pacific Theatre during World War
II. Knowledge of the Low Country, interest in current events, and
uninhibited imagination helped her produce
Flashback.
Deb Welch has worn many hats
during her life.
-
As a server, she
extinguished a flaming tablecloth in front of the famous singer, Perry
Como.
-
As a
salesperson, she sold living room furniture to heavyweight
champion, Joe Frazier.
-
As a programmer,
she taught Marines how to use computers to track
recruits and rifles.
-
As a manager,
she oversaw computer installations in hospitals throughout
the country.
-
As
entrepreneurs, she and her husband operated Seashore
Vacations on Hilton Head Island.
When they sold their vacation rental business
to a key employee, Deb pursued another career. Throughout her life, reading
has been a passion; writing an ambition. With the publication of
Flashback,
Deb has fulfilled another goal.
