Lee Ann Walling
My debut novel, The Salt and Light Express, will be published this October. It’s the story of Chris, an adventurous older woman who heads west in a small RV after the death of her long-time partner, Sally. Her original mission was to spread Sally’s ashes at Bryce Canyon, but detours along the way help her heal, confront her flagging faith, and find love and purpose again.
It’s an inspiring novel perfect for book clubs, and I can’t wait for you to read it.

Editor's Pick
Booklife (Publisher's Weekly)
Chris embarks on a journey through the American West in an RV and learns far more about herself, her family, and other ways of life than she ever expected . . . this is a riveting saga.
Aimie K. Runyan, best-selling author
The Wandering Season
The Salt and Light Express is a must read for anyone standing at life’s many crossroads, foot on the pedal, waving off what’s holding them back in the rearview mirror.
H.A. Callum, author
Whispers in the Alders
Walling’s evocative prose transports you to Chris’s world, and the explorations of religion, spirituality, human connection, and the power of love linger long after the last page is turned.
