I CARRY YOUR HEART WITH ME

by Jennifer Blackmer
June 11 to June 28, 2026


It’s 1968. Esther Shannon is a government stenographer working for the US Air Force during the Vietnam War. An unexpected encounter changes everything she thought she knew about herself and her possibilities --- and reveals a clear-eyed courage she never imagined was possible. It also lands her on the hot seat of a military investigation.

 
At its core, it’s a love story, but it’s also a taut, suspenseful mystery, with twists and turns that show what can happen when someone else’s story turns your world upside-down.
