Things I Didn't Do is an intimate and epic reckoning with the past, place, and the people who shape the course of our lives.

Ryder Mickelson's life changes forever the day he falls from a loaded pack mule high in the Book Cliffs of eastern Utah. He was seven years old, and some things would never quite be the same. The way he walks. How he rides a horse. The way he looks at a family photograph. Even so, Ryder grows up surrounded by the love of friends and family, cultivating his talents and building a life he's proud of. But ghosts never fully depart. When Ryder's twin daughters return home from college with unsettling news, long-buried questions resurface, and Ryder must face truths he's spent a lifetime avoiding.

In writing both fiercely intimate and expansively lyrical, Things I Didn't Do is the story of a man haunted by memory, grappling with identity, and undone by revelation.
