Where The People Are

Some people retreat to the wilderness to find themselves. Tom Collier went there to disappear. When Lisa, recovering from her own quiet heartbreak, stumbles upon his hidden cabin and finds him dangerously ill, she makes a choice that will change them both: she stays. For seventy-two hours, with a storm sealing them off from the world, she nurses a stranger back to life—never letting on that she recognizes the man beneath the fever and the beard. What unfolds between them isn't romance in any expected sense. It's something rarer: the experience of being truly seen, without performance, without pretense, in the most vulnerable moment of a life. This is a novel about the spiritual cost of hiding, the courage it takes to be witnessed, and the possibility that enlightenment isn't found in solitude—but in refusing to abandon each other in the mess of being human.
