In 1946, a tragic event changes eight-year-old
Hannah Jonesen’s life forever: her mother
dies, leaving the girl and her papa, JOHAN, to
run the family farm alone. Stern but loving,
Johan teaches Hannah about the importance
of work. Lieula, Hannah’s feisty maternal
grandmother, questions whether Johan is
responsible enough to raise his daughter by
himself; Hannah wishes they wouldn’t argue,
but she loves her grandma’s company. And
the townspeople of Munich, North Dakota,
are like an extended family, watching over the
motherless girl.
Meet Jennifer Lewis and Danny Wilcox, two-star

searching for answers. They know there are
others like themselves; undead, but alive in
both spirit and mind. Leaving the relative safety
of their hometown, they set out in a quest for
their own kind.

When 15 month old Trinket turns up missing
from their apartment building, Loosee Jeen is
compelled to become involved with the ex-
social worker neighbor who returns him to her.
She initially suspects the neighbor’s help will
come with too many judgments attached to it,
and why not? She is single, poor, and alone, and
her child was just found in someone else’s yard.
In She Thought the Door Was Locked, high
school dropout and single mother Loosee Jeen
struggles to learn how to balance her personal
longings for intimacy with her determination to
provide a good life for her toddler son, Trinket.
She makes some poor decisions along the way;
one in particular has almost fatal consequences
for her, her son and her family.
It has been 40 years since America closed its
borders and separated from the world following
the Vietnam War. Maxwell and Karina have
known this all their lives, but that didn’t mean
anything to them. After all, they lived in a small
town separated from the rest of the country by
larger than life trees and wildlife, what
difference would it make? That all changes
when they return home to find their house
ransacked and their mother missing.
Fragments of yesterdays past whisper through
the hollow corridors of this broken world as we
empty shells linger, struggling to capture a past
now gone, but those warm memories are gone,
leaving us conscience-ridden from our own
mistakes that have torn us in two. And we are
left to turmoil with the cruel hands of circuitry
stealing away what makes us human, but are we
now nothing but machine? Will the ghosts of
those we loved and lost remind us of the one
buried beneath the mirror? Can we heal, or will
we fracture and shatter like fragments of
yesterdays past?
