About the Author



FaceBook: Tracy Novinger, Author

Tracy Novinger writes of the feel and smell and texture of the island life that she lived. Her personal experience is enriched by oral history and diverse written records passed on to her by her family. She takes the reader on an adventure to an exotic time and place.

The tale that unfolds in Betrayal on Aruba Winds is enriched by the author's knowledge of cultures and languages. Novinger's previous two books on intercultural communication  were published by the University of Texas Press and have received acclaim for original insight.
