“You’re a good kid, Henry.”
Everyone knew that he was a good guy; geeky, responsible, hard-working. Henry has had a lot to deal with in the past. Now, as he should be focusing on his schooling and preparing himself for the future, he is hindered by abuse, the challenge of raising his baby brother while dealing with his mother’s deep depressions, and the return of a ghost from the past Henry has tried his best to forget.
But it seems that Henry can’t avoid the nastiness of life. As hard as he tries, it’s one more disaster after another as his life spirals out of control.
Can Henry escape the darkness, or is he doomed to be consumed by it?
‘I was caught up in the twists and turns of the plot from the beginning of Deviation and was still surprised at the end.’
‘This book could actually happen. That is what makes it so scary! I am really looking forward to the next book in the series. I am thoroughly intrigued and want to see what happens next.’
‘“Deviation” will play on your emotions and feed your doubts as you follow Henry though his many troubles and trials.’

How is Writing In Your Genre Different from Others?
The characters that speak to me are teens or early adults. I see how hard life is for them, all of the challenges that they battle, and I want to share their stories and let others know what it is like for them.

Author Bio:
P.D. Workman writes riveting young adult/suspense fiction about mental illness, addiction, and violence.
For as long as P.D. Workman can remember, the blank page has held an incredible allure. After a number of false starts, she finally wrote her first complete novel at the age of twelve. It was full of fantastic ideas. It was the spring board for many stories over the next few years.
P.D. Workman is a devout wife and a mother of one, born and raised in Alberta, Canada. She is a homeschooler and an Executive Assistant. She has a passion for art and nature, creative cooking for special diets, and running. She love to read, to listen to audio books, and to share books out loud with her family. She is a technology geek with a love for all kinds of gadgets and tools to make her writing and work easier and more fun. In person, she is far less well-spoken than on the written page and tends to be shy and reserved with all but those closest to her.
What Inspired You to Write Your Book?I saw my ‘Henry’ on the street. Smooth round face, glasses, big bruise under his eye… and I had to write his story.
