Bev Marshall, a native of McComb, Mississippi, lived as a nomadic military wife for many years. She returned to her Southern roots and taught English at Southeastern Louisiana University. She lives in Ponchatoula, Louisiana, with her husband. Walking Through Shadows is her first novel. “My hope is that the readers of Walking Through Shadows will find magic in their own lives, for if I should accomplish that, then I will have repaid all of the storytellers in my family for the wonderful stories that they gave to me.”
