    About this ebook

    Trixie waits tables in a diner on the Idaho border. Her customers range from liberal hippies to more conservative than she can believe.

    With her sister in hospice care and Trixie about to gain custody of her niece and nephew, the local Born Agains infuriate her with their meanness.

    Then things change completely. Karma happens.

    A breathtakingly original first contact story.

She made the rounds of her tables, pouring coffee and asking the obligatory, How’s everyone doing here? Then she made another round with the water pitcher.
