Call of the Camino by Suzanne Redfearn is an inspiring and emotional novel that weaves together two lives across time along the legendary Camino de Santiago. Reina Watkins, still carrying the grief of losing her father years ago, sets out on the same pilgrimage he once walked hoping, perhaps, to understand him and herself a little better.
Decades earlier, Isabelle Vidal embarks on the Camino for entirely different reasons, running from her past and searching for a future she can claim as her own.
As both women follow the same ancient path, their stories begin to intertwine in unexpected ways. Along the road, they encounter moments of connection, self-discovery, and quiet transformation. Thoughtful and uplifting, this novel explores how journeys both physical and emotional can reshape our lives.
