IN THE WAKE OF CHAOS: A Novel

Description

Editorial Reviews

“In the Wake of Chaos is a classic quest story of the highest order, both physical and metaphysical. Delaina Layne’s extraordinary debut centers on one woman’s journey to overcome the obstacles and pitfalls that stand in the way of healing her soul and finding light amid the darkness. An enriching and fulfilling well-told tale, both bracingly original and blisteringly effective.”

– Jon Land, USA Today bestselling author of the Caitlin Strong novels

From the Author

“a spiritual, mystical, coming of age story about one woman’s journey of rising above the heartbreak of political chaos towards personal transformation and a spiritual adventure…”

This novel was years in the making and bookends the volatile and divisive U.S. Presidential Elections of 2016 and 2020. Although politics and chaos are the catalysts that anchor the story, it’s the mystical adventure and modern-day treasure hunt that ultimately transforms our main character during her quest for purpose and destiny. What she discovers not only changes her life, but of those around her too, and is beyond anything they could have otherwise imagined.

About the Author

Hi there, I’m Delaina Layne, a not-too-public international bestselling ghostwriter, who retired early from client work after enduring one too many self-indulgent prima-donnas. Honestly it was just one insecure but lovable, drinks one-too-many clients who tipped the boat to set me free. Like being thrown out to sink or swim, this gave me the courage to finally blaze a trail of my own. One where I focused on the books in my head collecting dust, rather than spending every waking and sleeping hour helping clients get their words on paper. Much like my characters, I am straightforward, blunt, and believe truth is better than fiction. Speaking of which, I love to blend the worlds of fiction and self-help together as one. My agent thinks this is somewhat odd, but admits it works. My debut novel, “In The Wake Of Chaos,” is like having the mystical impact of a Celestine Prophecy meet The Morning Show. Fresh, sassy and current, yet adventurous, mysterious and thought-provoking at the same time.
