Orion in the Sunshine is Jenny Poelman's second novel and a sequel to The Alphabet Woods (2023). Because Jenny spent most of her childhood in South Korea, where her parents were missionaries in the 1960s and '70s, she is what's known as a third-culture kid-one who stands with a foot in each world, absorbing both. It was in this setting that Jenny's love for books and writing was born, though she was in her sixties when she wrote her first novel.Jenny and her husband Ken recently moved from North Carolina to retire in their home state of Montana, where the stunning scenery, casual lifestyle, and fresh mountain air provide extra inspiration for Jenny's writing. They enjoy sharing their love of the American West with their children and grandchildren, but North Carolina will always remain solidly in Jenny's heart and on the pages of her Key North books.
