Somewhere Above It All

Self-Discovery on Mount Kilimanjaro

​Devastated by her husband's death from opioid abuse, small-town widow Marren Halleck travels to Tanzania to summit the majestic Mount Kilimanjaro. Along her trek through the ever-changing scenery of the mountain, Marren finds hope for a new beginning and forms a special connection with her climbing team, including a mysterious cowboy named Chris. Her promising path forward is derailed, however, when she discovers that Chris isn't who she thinks he is, and she must search inside herself to learn how to truly stand on her own.

In her debut novel, Somewhere Above It All, author Holli Fawcett Clayton takes us on a breathless expedition through nature and brilliantly captures the restorative power of human connection in her poignant portrayal of Marren's struggle with grief. Readers will be captivated by Marren's riveting journey to overcome her painful past and find the happiness she longs for.
