After the sudden loss of her partner, Chris sets out on a cross-country road trip, carrying grief, guilt, and more questions than answers. With no real plan—and no GPS to guide her through heartbreak—she heads west, hoping distance will bring clarity.
Along the way, Chris crosses paths with people who gently disrupt her isolation. Their kindness, shared vulnerability, and unexpected humor begin to soften the guarded parts of her heart. When she finds herself unexpectedly drawn to one of them, old wounds resurface, leaving her uncertain, awkward, and afraid to risk love again.
As Chris attempts to reconnect with family she hasn’t seen in years, unspoken differences complicate her search for belonging. Pulled between the past and the possibility of something new, she must confront the ways grief—and fear—have shaped her choices.
When a shocking incident at a small-town library brings everything to a head, Chris faces a moment of reckoning that will determine whether she remains closed off or opens herself to connection, forgiveness, and joy.
At its heart, The Salt and Light Express is a warm, hopeful novel about grief, resilience, and the transformative power of friendship—especially between two older women navigating loss, renewal, and the question of whether it’s ever too late to begin again.
Perfect for readers who love character-driven stories about healing, connection, and second chances.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
