Jamie should have known something was up when he stumbled in out of the snow and they'd saved him a cup of coffee. For the city-worn Montrealer, the village of Sneaky Hollow is a badly needed breath of fresh air, but it's also, he begins to discover, a place that shouldn't exist.
Nestled somewhere between the backroads of the Eastern Townships and a wrinkle in time, Sneaky Hollow gives Jamie exactly what he needs; a home, a community, and a madcap touch of magic that never fails to delight him. But as outside forces threaten to iron out that wrinkle and erase Sneaky Hollow for good, Jamie teams up with a determined young woman and a crowd of eccentric café regulars with a shared goal. That goal is simple (in theory): to uncover the mysteries of this wonderful place, to understand why it called them to it, and pull together enough maple syrup-fuelled resistance to save it.
A cozy, magical-realist village novel that imagines memories with a gravity of their own, Where Time Stands Still is a charm-and-nostalgia pie topped with a pinch of quantum physics (just for spice). Whether you're longing for a place that feels like home, or wondering if such places still exist, this book answers with a warm yes, and then invites you to stay awhile.

When Andrew Retchless created the Pine Knot General Store and its cast of ferret-wrangling inventors, coffee-powered resistance fighters, and cryptic old sages in worn-out chairs by the fire, he only wanted a fun way to deliver weather forecasts to his native Eastern Townships from his Facebook weather page. But the response was immediate: "So where's the book?"
So it came; a love letter to the quiet magic of Retchless's home, and a meditation on what he saw being lost around him in development and gentrification. He wanted to write a cozy escape from the modern world, to bring hope, humour, heartache and healing to his readers.
Retchless lives in Canton Stanstead, Quebec, on Lake Lovering, and if Harold's latest invention hasn't scrambled the internet again, you can find him at sneakyhollow.ca
