The Lost Husband

About the book

Now a major motion picture starring Leslie Bibb and Josh Duhamel

Dear Libby, It has come to my attention that you and your two children have been residing with your mother for an astonishing two years, and I am reaching out to inquire if you would like a way out.

Out of the blue, an opportunity presents itself to Libby Moran, who, following the unexpected passing of her husband, Danny, sought refuge with her overly critical mother. Now her eccentric Aunt Jean offers Libby a chance at freedom: a job and a home on her farm in the beautiful Texas Hill Country. Without hesitation, Libby loads up the minivan, gathers the kids, and sets off on a new adventure.

Life on Aunt Jean’s goat farm is a blend of enchantment and enigma that exceeds Libby’s expectations. Amidst the animals and demanding chores, there lies a serene and profound country quietude. Alongside a rugged, gruff farm manager with a heartbreaking past, a once-famous feed-store clerk who claims she can communicate with Danny 'on the other side,' and the peculiar aunt Libby never truly knew but happened to be exactly what she needed, Libby discovers a sense of belonging. Despite the losses she has endured, Libby realizes the abundance of blessings she has stumbled upon. She hasn't merely traded one form of chaos for another: she may have finally discovered the haven to rejuvenate her little family - and herself - back to vitality.
