Praise for Little Bear Creek: Don Houts - Men Reading Book Blog Review: “Secret of Little Bear Creek: As inferred by the title, it’s the three-generational story of pain and escape. After a dramatic incident, Hannah Bradley attempts to track her family history to understand. Her therapist suggests she take a journey to discover her family’s origins. To find out why her Grandfather abruptly moved the family to Michigan, her father migrated to California, completely cutting himself off from the family he left behind. As a psychiatrist, I thought this story captured exactly what I do with patients during a psychic archaeological dig. The goal is not to find someone to blame but to see patterns in the past so those patterns can be recognized in the present – and then managed differently. Matthews’s insights are remarkable!” San Diego Publishers & Writers Association - "Amazing insightful, surprisingly touching, and filled with truth. A must-read!" Andrew McAllister - Amazon best-selling author: “Matthews generally grabs us with his thrillers and mysteries. Now he pulls into something new. Little Bear Creek does have thrills and mystery but immerses the reader in a tale of emotional strife and a journey to know oneself. Prepare yourself, this is a bumpy ride, and when you read the last line, I will suspect that you will reflect on your own life and take stock of who you are and where you came from. This is a must-read!” Pageturners Book Club: "Secret of Little Bear Creek takes the reader on a journey from California to Michigan to Alabama revealing family secrets that run through three generations. Matthews skillfully engages the reader with his tight plot and fully formed characters. The satisfactory conclusion may cause readers to wonder what mysteries might be lurking within their own families. Well done, Matthews!" —
