Swan Boat Souvenir

Swan Boat Souvenir is a story of abduction and murder, a story of twin souls and dreams. The book is unique in its approach to the painful subject of a child's kidnapping. Readers will explore the Boston Public Garden, the back roads of Connecticut and the Pacific Coast highway as they travel with one soul on its incredible journey. The unsolved 1975 disappearance, in Boston, of a six-year-old boy, changes the lives of families and strangers forever. Sixteen years after Shamus Thomas Carney's abduction a plane lands at Logan Airport with a man named Angus T. Roarke on board. He is a businessman impatient to be done with a family celebration, a man who is about to become an unwitting player in a lost child's rebirth. Angus T. Roarke will spend one night at the exclusive Charles River Plaza Hotel over looking the Boston Public Garden. The consequences of his actions, on an October evening in 1991, sets off a seven-year chain of events which will lead a handful of characters through a labyrinth of paradox. The web of fate will be flung across their lives, drawing them all into a blind bargain with destiny.
