The Wind Under the Door

Starting over is always easier among strangers. For Ford Carson, the process meant leaving behind the waves of South Florida, in order to forge a new life as a visual artist in the mountains of North Carolina. At the peak of his reinvention, he meets Grace Burnett-a young, wealthy Texas transplant in the midst of her own transformation. A mutual infatuation develops. But when Grace's estranged husband arrives complications ensue. Matters only worsen when Ford's own estranged son announces plans to visit for his eighteenth birthday. Thomas Calder's debut novel, THE WIND UNDER THE DOOR, explores the lasting impact of broken bonds and the unanticipated ways the past haunts those on the run.
