NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER .""A moving story of love and reunion . . . an absolute joy to read . . . I finally put Dream Country down at 2 a.m. and almost called in sick the next day to finish it.""-Denver Post

It was just an argument, one of hundreds Daisy Tucker must have had with her teenage

daughter, Sage, over the years. But this one had ended differently, with Sage gone

from their Connecticut home the next morning, leaving behind only a brief note- ""I

have to go."" Daisy tried not to overreact, tried to remind herself this was different

from what had happened thirteen years earlier to Sage's twin brother, Jake. This

was different from a three-year-old boy disappearing in the canyons of Wyoming, never

to be found. Sage was sixteen and resourceful. She would be found.

Years ago Daisy

had traveled to Wyoming's Wind River Mountains in search of inspiration for her art

and had found a man with the wilderness inside him. James Tucker was a rancher, bound

to the wild land he loved, and together he and Daisy created a small paradise for

their family-until the day their little boy vanished without a trace. Now, as their

daughter makes a dangerous cross-country pilgrimage to the father she longs for,

Daisy will return to the place that took everything she had. . . .

Filled with a wild

and unpredictable beauty, Dream Country is a novel you'll never want to end-even

as you can't wait to finish it.
