Quest for the Ivory Caribou is a powerful and engaging novel about love and loss, about grief and survival, and ultimately about a woman who begins the journey into her own power. Robby was the love of her life. Twenty-two years older, he was her mentor, her protector, and the source of a family mystery she had been helping him solve. Then he died. And with him went her lust for life. Now Anne wants to solve that mystery as one last gift for Robby before she joins him. But life is full of surprises. In Ottawa, French Canadian researcher René does more than help Anne with her work - he awakens feelings she thought gone. When the clues they find lead Anne north to the land of the Inuit, she finds not just the answer she seeks but the embrace of a family, the will to move forward, and unexpected love. Join Anne as she travels from San Diego to far northern Ungavaq, and then into the past - to World War I Germany - as she realizes she must face the same decision her husband's father did: to live life to the fullest or give up. A story of courage and rebirth, of love lost and found, and of the power of family, Quest for the Ivory Caribou reminds readers that it is in the confluence of past and present that we often find the most meaning in our lives.
