AWARD-WINNING AUTHOR

"An engrossing tale of an uncanny and sometimes frightening life." —Kirkus Reviews

It was Friday night, September 2, 1983. Julie Cromwell will never forget that shocking day when she lost her best friend, Candice Wentworth, in an upscale oyster bar. No, Candice had not disappeared. She had died when the club's suspended dance floor gave way, a sudden and seemingly random tragedy, casting 500+ dancers to their deaths in a 30-foot drop.

Her life ignobly snuffed out at the young age of 32, Candice exemplified a fun-loving lifestyle and a warm kindred spirit—possessing all the requisite traits for a promising future. She never entertained a trace of ill will toward anyone. How could something so grisly happen to such a compassionate, enchanting human being?

Julie struggles to make sense of it all, reminiscing as she travels back to her hometown of Trenton, New Jersey. The two had met in Milwaukee and worked as underwriters for The Walden Company. But something went horribly wrong. Julie's journey is one filled with elation and fear, jealousy and regret, happiness and indignation, and a horrifying act of disloyalty.

An unforgettable, tumultuous ride, Last of the Autumn Rain delivers an introspective and jaw-clenching tale, which not only rocks one's moral compass, but invites a chilling question: in a world where the ground can literally fall out from under you, what else might be lurking beneath the surface?

"...this novel is an excellent read for fans of psychological thrillers." —Readers' Favorite

"...For psychological thriller enthusiasts craving a riveting unsettling experience, this novel burrows under the skin and truly delivers a mind-blowing page-turner." —Ghassan Salti

About the Author

Diana Louise Webb, who has a Juris Doctorate degree and a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology, is a survivor of 12+ unjust years in federal prison, and a tenacious victor, having successfully navigated a life-threatening disease. She also is the daughter of a German child survivor of East Prussia, who fled the Soviet occupation during the evacuations of 1944. Her experience with adversity has made her even more resilient, a living testament to the cliché: “What doesn’t kill you, makes you stronger.”

Author of the Five-Time National Award-Winning Book, The Butterfly Cometh, the book she wrote after her 12.5-year prison term and having experiencing a medical miracle in 2002. The Butterfly Cometh is an intense, thought-provoking work about the realities of life. An educator, tutor, motivational speaker, and freelance writer, Diana’s voice comes from a place of profound loss and resilience: she lost her best friend to suicide, and her ex-boyfriend, currently incarcerated, attempted to murder her. She currently lives in a modest home in rural Missouri, where she gardens and shares quality time with her mother.
