The In-Between Hour: A Novel
(Adobe EPUB eBook, Kindle Book, OverDrive Read)
What could be worse than losing your child? Having to pretend he’s still alive…
Bestselling author Will Shepard is caught in the twilight of grief, after his young son dies in a car accident. But when his father’s aging mind erases the memory, Will rewrites the truth. The story he spins brings unexpected relief…until he’s forced to return to rural North Carolina, trapping himself in a lie.
Holistic veterinarian Hannah Linden is a healer who opens her heart to strays but can only watch, powerless, as her grown son struggles with inner demons. When she rents her guest cottage to Will and his dad, she finds solace in trying to mend their broken world, even while her own shatters.
As their lives connect and collide, Will and Hannah become each other’s only hope—if they can find their way into a new story, one that begins with love.
“White’s beautifully crafted novel demonstrates how two broken souls can find peace for themselves and their loved ones.”—Booklist

- “A tender and emotionally-charged…story of life, survival and, ultimately, of love that transcends all.”—Karen White, New York Times bestselling author
What could be worse than losing your child? Having to pretend he’s still alive…
Bestselling author Will Shepard is caught in the twilight of grief, after his young son dies in a car accident. But when his father’s aging mind erases the memory, Will rewrites the truth. The story he spins brings unexpected relief…until he’s forced to return to rural North Carolina, trapping himself in a lie.
Holistic veterinarian Hannah Linden is a healer who opens her heart to strays but can only watch, powerless, as her grown son struggles with inner demons. When she rents her guest cottage to Will and his dad, she finds solace in trying to mend their broken world, even while her own shatters.
As their lives connect and collide, Will and Hannah become each other’s only hope—if they can find their way into a new story, one that begins with love.

December 15, 2013
Written in thesouthern gothic manner, White's (The Unfinished Garden, 2012) latest unsettling tale explores the boundaries between parents and children, reality and delusion. Best-selling author Will travels from New York City to North Carolina when his Native American father, Jacob, is ousted from a senior facility for starting a fistfight. Jacob, whose memory is spotty, doesn't remember that his grandson died in a fatal car crash a few months earlier, and Will can't decide whether to keep reminding Jacob or to let him believe the boy is still alive. While Will looks for another place for Jacob to live, they stay in a cabin on the property of divorced holistic veterinarian Hannah, whose graduate student son has threatened to commit suicide. Since debilitating depression runs in the family, Hannah is working to keep her son from killing himself like her father did. While the thirtysomething Will and older Hannah feel connected, how can they come together with their families imploding? White's beautifully crafted novel demonstrates how two broken souls can find peace for themselves and their loved ones.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2013, American Library Association.)
