A NEW DAWN IN DEER ISLE is a book that will linger in your mind long after you've read it. It's a deeply moving story about lost hope, personal rediscovery, renewed optimism, and the human will to go on. George McLast has not been a happy man. He's been mourning his wife's death for three years, his financial situation has been worse than ever, he hates where he lives, and he's been getting some very unnerving feelings in his chest. But George isn't quite ready to throw in the towel yet. He still has one burning desire left--to drive across America in his old van. So, after telling himself "no" for far too long, he finally loads a mattress in the back the van, hits the road, and begins an adventure he never dreamed possible.
