Ten Miles

Ten Miles is a short, reflective novel about the questions we only ask when time is running out.

When Charlie receives a rambling voicemail from his eccentric, world-famous ex-father-in-law — an environmental activist and author traveling the back roads of three continents on the backs of his elephants — it becomes an unexpected meditation on life, purpose, and knowing when the journey is done. As the old man puts it: “All of life is a quest, Charlie… and the trick is realizing it when you’ve found the treasure, while there is still life enough in your veins to enjoy it.”
