A House, a Dog, and an Old Truck (ePub)

In 'A House, a Dog, and an Old Truck' the reader will get acquainted with Jeffrey, a mature art expert longing for a new creative start in his life after decades battling with painful memories. Jeffrey meets Stephen, an officer in the local police force, twenty years his junior. As their relationship progresses, Stephen helps Jeffrey emerge from his self-imposed isolation. In return, Jeffrey provides Stephen with safety, and helps him grow more self-confident. While they both realize that the age difference is not an issue in itself, they still remain secretive when it comes to their respective life stories. Until this finally catches up with them and events force them to open up to each other and win over their fears.

'A House, a Dog, and an Old House' is Morgan's first major literary project and is at heart an attempt to answer the question 'When is late too late for a relationship?' It addresses a range of powerful issues from betrayal, to domestic abuse and abandonment. Morgan's style is best described as analytical, with constant interactions between characters and with a good touch of humor and irony.
