West Lafayette, Ind., January 7, 2015 – Jess Eise just released her second novel Black River Redemption that is based on her travels in Guyana. The novel is a compelling adventure fiction story about a young woman who sets out to research malaria in the small country of Guyana but is met with a twist of fate and a life experience she will never forget.
Jess Eise spent two months in Guyana, South America, for a work project in January and February of 2014. She was inspired to write her second novel by the people she met, the culture, and the remarkable diversity. “If people know Guyana at all, they know it because of the tragic Jonestown Massacre. However, it’s so much more than that,” the author said. “The diversity and culture are remarkable – it’s an English-speaking, Caribbean culture in South America with an absolutely unique and stunning landscape.”
The novel captures many facets of the Guyanese culture and geography. The unique black rivers that distinguish the country are a recurring theme. She integrates the many different ethnicities that form a part of the country. “I was so motivated by the many interesting and brilliant Guyanese people I met while I was living there. I confess, I actually integrated some of them loosely into the novel. They might even recognize themselves!”
Black River Redemption is available on Amazon in both paperback and for Kindle.
Jess Eise graduated from Saint Louis University with a Bachelors in Political Science, International Studies and Spanish. She got her Masters from New York University in International Relations and Journalism. She has done extensive Communications work domestically and abroad. Black River Redemption is her second novel. Her first novel, In A Wild Place is also available for sale on Amazon.
