Turtle Valley

It is the end of a long, dry summer in Turtle Valley, British Columbia, and when a raging forest fire threatens to destroy Kat's childhood home, she returns with her son and estranged husband to help her elderly parents prepare for evacuation.  Haunted by memories of the relationship she had with a man she loved and left fifteen years before, Kat discovers a ghostly link between her mother's tragic past and her own quest to find a love that has the power to fulfill and sustain her.

Sure to be remembered as one of her most satisfying novels, Turtle Valley is a page-turner filled with lush descriptions, emotional truths and dark poetry that have made Gail Anderson-Dargatz an international literary sensation.
