Description
Following tragic events from which Julie O'Dale believes she will never recover, she buys into her husband Ian's dream to give up their comfortable city lives and retreat to the isolated Chilcotin area of British Columbia. Only after purchasing the remote six hundred acre cattle ranch do they realize that, along with the and, they have inherited the reclusive tenant who occupies and old trapper's cabin on the property. As both Julie and Ian wrestle with their individual guilt over their deteriorating marriage and their sorrow, they also have to contend with the wilderness at their doorstep and the mysterious tenant, Virgil Blue. Another riveting novel from the author of The Promise of Rain, a Globe and Mail Top 100 title in 2009.

Editorial Review
“Donna Milner’s Somewhere In-Between is about a family healing from tragedy. With wisdom and compelling storytelling, Milner gives readers a tale of rural British Columbia that is both universal and timeless.”
