Seeking Safe Harbour
by
Ruth Minaker
Many city-dwellers daydream about adopting a simpler life while stuck in relentless highway traffic or sardined in a stifling subway car. So when Torontonian single mom Laura Tenley inherits a small home on idyllic Prince Edward Island, she wholeheartedly embraces the chance to escape urban life and start over. Laura takes quickly to her new cottage home with a view of the sea and the easy warmth of her neighbours, but outrunning stress and trouble only works for so long, and there are plenty of real life struggles to be had on the island. Laura’s sense of humour and curiosity about this new world buoys her through the challenges of parenting adult children, reckoning with family history, and figuring out who she is and what she’s meant to do. A meditative story that celebrates the beauty of the everyday, Seeking Safe Harbour reminds us that it’s never too late to start again.
Ruth Minaker is a retired social worker, traveller, nature lover, and avid reader. She is a keen observer of the everyday quirks that make ordinary people fascinating. She and her husband live in Manitoba, where they garden prolifically, travel, and entertain friends and family. This is her first novel and its second edition.
