ABOUT THE BOOK: HarperCollins- After Rocky's veterinarian husband dies
too young, at 42, she leaves town and her job as a psychologist and
heads to secluded Peak's Island, off the coast of Portland. There, she
becomes the local Animal Control Warden and reinvents her past so that
it no longer includes the tragic fact of her husband's death.
When Rocky finds a dog with a strange handmade arrow sticking out of his
shoulder, she both finds a soulmate, and uncovers the beginnings of a
mystery. With the new friends she meets on the island, Tess, the
synesthete; Melissa, the young anorexic; and Hill, her archery
instructor, whom she is simultaneously suspicious of and attracted to;
Rocky slowly unravels the mystery of Lloyd the dog, the arrow, and his
missing owner. In doing so, she learns that her grief can be displaced,
slowly but surely, by moments of joy.
