The Simpler: Book III in The Riven Country Series

THE SIMPLER rounds out the first trilogy in The Riven Country Series. The contemporary, psychological novel examines obsession and madness, whether in Paris, France, a demesne in Ireland, or Devils Tower in Wyoming’s Black Hills. Senga Munro, ever the herbal simpler, using one herb at a time, continues to provide her remedies and esoteric philosophies. In return, her trust will be tried-and who is Danica Olsen, other than a former acquaintance of Senga’s lover in Denmark?The series’ thread of magical realism follows Senga to Ireland, and once again seeing what others can’t, she will pay the price. Struggling to regain a hard-won sense of her own agency, someone who once intervened on her behalf will test her intuition. Ranchers Rufus and Caroline Strickland, Gabe Belizaire, The Blue Wood Guest Ranch staff, and the lovely Francesca return, along with the Two Bears and their adopted son, Joe Rafaela. The 1800’s Cheyenne chief Highwolf makes another appearance, this time as a child.A story of love among persons of every age, and what it means to be attentive, this is a cautionary tale written to our souls, as we consider the stillness between the tides of trust, and those of deed.
