A Night As Clear As Day In this emotionally charged debut novel, one woman searches for an escape from her painful past and finds unexpected hope and happiness in rural New England… After fleeing a nightmare marriage to her abusive husband, Gaye Foster finds the quiet town of West Greenlea, New Hampshire, a perfect respite, even if it means leaving behind her successful career in Philadelphia. Now, surrounded by lovely imaginings of safety and serenity, she happily spends her days working as a veterinarian at a rural clinic. But nights, when she is alone with her awful memories, prove more challenging. Then Gaye meets Toby Callan, a blind local musician. He comes to her seeking treatment for his ailing seeing-eye dog. And Gaye not only gives him help, but hope. As she develops a bond with Toby and his dog, she discovers her own lingering blindness to the things that really matter. And when heartbreak threatens to cast a shadow of doubt over her new life, she must take her first tentative steps into the future with a vision of hope, as bright and clear as day…
