William Dixon, son of Henry Dixon and Rose, was born in Ireland. He married Ann Gregg in about 1690. Descendants and relatives lived mainly in Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana.
After his wife is mysteriously murdered, Dixon travels to the Ticonderoga, a 400,000 acre forest in Canada. He is led there by strange maps left by his wife in their safe. From attacks by coyotes to the discovery of a body, Dixon must survive the wilderness and uncover the clues left behind to unravel the meaning of the maps and how they are connected to his wife's untimely death.
“Compelling.”—The Boston Globe “Poignant…heartbreaking.”—The Christian Science Monitor “This one hits hard.”—Publishers Weekly When Nate suggests that they attempt to be the first Black American men to summit Mount Everest, his younger brother Dixon can’t refuse. The two are determined to prove something—to themselves and to each other. Dixon interrupts his orderly life as a school psychologist, leaving behind disapproving friends, family, and one particularly fragile student. Once on the mountain, Nate and Dixon are met with extreme weather conditions, oxygen deprivation, and precarious terrain. But as much as they’ve prepared for this, Mt. Everest is always fickle. And in one devastating moment, Dixon’s world is upended. Dixon returns home and attempts to resume his job, but things have shifted: for him and for the students he left behind. Ultimately, Dixon must confront the truth of what happened on the mountain and come to terms with who can and cannot be saved. Dixon, Descending offers us a captivating, shattering portrait of the ways we’re reshaped by our decisions—and what it takes to angle ourselves, once again, toward hope. “Outen understands first-class human drama.” —Gabriel Bump, author of The New Naturals “The most engulfing, transporting, deeply humane novel I’ve read in ten years.” —Monica Wood, author of How to Read a Book
