Gretna, LA Author Publishes Adventure Novel

Fate from Circumstance, a new book by Jason Wayne Carr, has been released by RoseDog Books.

Sebastiane Bassett's life so far, all fourteen years of it, while growing up in suburban New Orleans seems very ordinary until he thwarts a horrifying and recurring violation that has plagued his two best friends, twin sisters Heather and Sarah Prescott, for the entirety of their childhood. Unclear as to how he was able to save them, but very clear as to the why, he can only comprehend one thing: he will have to wait for the truth to serve as an explanation. If it ever comes!

That truth, his family's historical lineage, soaked in the blood of his ancestors through centuries of conflict, has and will always be the defining path of his life whether he knows it or not. And whether he wants it to or not.

Years later, when circumstance again conspires with tragedy to undermine his belief system and his fortitude, Sebastiane is forced to travel to his ancestral homeland. It is here that he meets his maternal grandfather, a man he knows nothing about. Could he be the one with the answers Sebastiane seeks? Or is it already too late?

His mother's father, Maurice Renault, a man whose own past is shrouded in secrecy, death, and regret, reluctantly chooses to guide his grandson towards the truth of who and what he is. If he succeeds, further tragedy might be averted. But fate has other ideas in store for them both, and circumstance can be a fickle thing.

In the end, Sebastiane must come to terms with his past, forgive himself for the present, and accept his future. If he can, he just might be able to survive…
