Tanner vokste opp hos sine besteforeldre og fulgte i bestefarens militære fotspor. Han har tilbrakt nesten hele sitt voksne liv i utlandet og er stadig på jakt etter nye eventyr. Men når bestemoren går bort, er hennes siste ord til ham: Finn ut hvor du hører hjemme. Hun forteller ham også navnet på faren han aldri kjente – og hvor han kan bli funnet. Tanner skal snart ut på nytt oppdrag, men nysgjerrigheten er vekket, og han drar til en liten by i North Carolina for å forhøre seg om den ukjente faren. Han har vært i byen mindre enn tjuefire timer når han møter Kaitlyn Cooper, lege og alenemor, og blir øyeblikkelig sjarmert. Åttitre år gamle Jasper bor i en hytte i nærheten. Sammen med sin gamle hund lever han et stille liv, hjemsøkt av en tragisk ulykke som fant sted flere tiår tidligere. Når han hører rykter om at en hvit hjort har blitt oppdaget i skogen - en mytisk skapning som inspirerte faren og bestefaren hans - blir han besatt av å beskytte hjorten mot krypskyttere. Etter hvert som disse tre personene nærmer seg hverandre, er det ingen av dem som forventer et mirakel. Men det kan være akkurat det som er i ferd med å endre fremtiden deres for alltid.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION From the acclaimed author of The Longest Ride and The Notebook comes an emotional, powerful novel about wondering if we can change--or even make our peace with--the path we've taken. Tanner Hughes was raised by his grandparents, following in his grandfather's military footsteps to become an Army Ranger. His whole life has been spent abroad, and he is the proverbial rolling stone: happiest when off on his next adventure, zero desire to settle down. But when his grandmother passes away, her last words to him are find where you belong. She also drops a bombshell, telling him the name of the father he never knew--and where to find him. Tanner is due at his next posting soon, but his curiosity is piqued, and he sets out for Asheboro, North Carolina, to ask around. He's been in town less than twenty-four hours when he meets Kaitlyn Cooper, a doctor and single mom. They both feel an immediate connection; Tanner knows Kaitlyn has a story to tell, and he wants to hear it. To Kaitlyn, Tanner is mysterious, exciting--and possibly leaving in just a few weeks. Meanwhile, nearby, eighty-three-year-old Jasper lives alone in a cabin bordering a national forest. With only his old dog, Arlo, for company, he lives quietly, haunted by a tragic accident that took place decades before. When he hears rumors that a white deer has been spotted in the forest--a creature of legend that inspired his father and grandfather--he becomes obsessed with protecting the deer from poachers. As these characters' fates orbit closer together, none of them is expecting a miracle... but that may be exactly what is about to alter their futures forever.
