Not Too Far

As told through a daughter’s admiring eyes, this suspenseful story, wrapped in romance, takes the reader from the tragedies of Vietnam to the sunny beaches of Catalina Island. At the heart of the story is a love spanning decades and illuminating the challenges that defined a generation. While Lefebvre’s novel pivots around the Vietnam conflict of the ‘60s, it is neither a book about politics nor war. 


In the present day, a forensic investigation threatens to undermine a prestigious family’s military legacy as well as the sanity of the lead investigator, Captain Melanie Clarke. A cast of characters, all grappling with their own or a loved one’s despair over events of the past, come together as mysteries of lost love and mistaken identity unravel. As the pieces fall into place, everyone, including the reader, is in for a shocking discovery.
