"Follow the Snowy Goose Home," a new book by Doreen R. Todd, has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc.

A powerful story of resilience, trauma recovery, and unexpected love.

Cheyenne "Cye" Cross leads a fulfilling life as a dedicated veterinarian at Heartland Clinic, supported by a close-knit circle of friends and colleagues. However, her world is shattered one night when a routine closing of the clinic turns into a violent confrontation with a robber. Cye narrowly escapes with her life thanks to her quick instincts and an unlikely protector: a temperamental horse aptly named Satan.

The novel follows Cye through the grueling aftermath of the attack as she navigates both the physical and emotional scars left behind. With the support of her friends Matt and Sylvie, her brother Spencer, and a newfound connection with a local man named Trayne Carpenter and his young son, Cye begins to reclaim her life. In a touching transformation, even her four-legged savior, Satan, finds a fresh start under the new name Red Velvet.
