D. K. Christi's obsession with the ghost orchid of Corkscrew swamp was the inspiration for a story of one family's love, lies and redemption, a mystery unfolding one coincidence at a time under the ghost orchid, high in the cypress canopy.

Contact: D. K. Christi dkchristi@yahoo.com P.O.Box 367061, Bonita Springs, FL 34136 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE – time sensitive September 26, 2009

Florida’s own Everglades are featured in the press and television this weekend. Talent abounds locally as Clyde Butcher’s phenomenal black and white Everglades photography is front and center in a PBS special.

D. K. Christi, another local talent and novelist, celebrates her just released fiction novel, GHOST ORCHID, first released in ebook format to Mobipocket and Kindle at Amazon.com with the print book soon to be available online and through distribution to all book sellers.

GHOST ORCHID was inspired by D. K. Christi’s own obsession with the ghost orchid that first bloomed in Corkscrew Swamp Audubon Sanctuary on her birthday in 2007 and continued to bloom in successive years 2008 and 2009. She wore out the boardwalk as she stalked every change in the exquisite and rare orchid, high in the canopy, over three months each summer.

Inspiration from these walks is reflected in the descriptions of the changing swamp’s flora and fauna as well as her fascination with the ever-changing “ghost.”

One fictional family’s loves, lies and redemption are wrapped in the magic of the ghost orchid; and a mystery unfolds, one coincidence at a time, under the watchful eyes of photographers seeking the perfect subject in the perfect light and finding themselves. The beautiful Irish girl, Neev, uncovers secrets that haunt her very existence and also reveal the answer to the question: Is love eternal?

D. K. Christi is Amazon.com’s “Author to Watch whose debut novel Arirang, a romantic adventure that spans seven continents, conveys an underlying theme that "life happens when you are planning something else." In Christi's shorter works such as Chalk, The Magic Box, and The Valentine , exclusive to Amazon Shorts , themes of friendship surviving tragedy, love conquering adversity, and the triumph of the human spirit over the hardships of life serve to uplift and inspire. Discover a new voice in fiction and through her stories, perhaps discover something new about yourself. “

D. K. Christi is the pen name for Diane Christianson, currently a School Director in Lee County and formerly an administrator for the Collier County School District. A local community advocate with a history of helping those overcoming barriers to education and work, she is a world-traveled adventurer ready to regale audiences with tales of blue water sailing and foreign ports. She will be signing books at the Barnes and Noble Waterside Local Author’s event Saturday, October 31. www.dkchristi.com dkchristi@yahoo.com
