About this listen
After suffering a devastating loss, Henry Thornwood, a former college professor, finds himself living in a homeless encampment in the Northwest. As he makes the rounds, extending kindness and cups of coffee to vulnerable members of the community, he meets Cindy Rhodes, a realtor and domestic abuse survivor, who is also running from a painful past.
The two of them bond over their trauma and set out on a soulful journey. What follows is an unlikely love story that leads them to a commune along the Columbia River Gorge, the sanctuary they need to heal.
Full of compelling human drama and plot twists that climax on a bridge at dawn, this novel is ultimately a tale of hope and spiritual redemption.

As shifting acceptance of homelessness enters the political and cultural fray, Henry and his Freedom Camp community suddenly find themselves being raided with little time to find a new place to live. So, when Cindy suggests Henry join her in returning to Tamanass he decides to try it. A commune in the forest near the Columbia River Gorge, the community of Tamanass welcomes Cindy back and quickly accepts Henry into their fold. Through rituals, mind-altering substances, and community bonds, Cindy begins to spiritually process all she’s lost. With a history of alcoholism, his own losses, and a painful road himself, Henry, like Cindy, finds himself growing, learning, grieving, and reconciling while at Tamanass.
Author Krin Van Tatenhove guides riders through Henry and Cindy’s plights as we are slowly peppered with flashbacks, memories, and recounting of their paths to homelessness. Through various reunions, emotions, and even fear, readers form a deep bond to Tatenhove’s characters. Traversing the west coast, “Bridge at Dawn” offers a powerful, yet distinctive perception of grief in all its forms, including the brilliance of hope that awaits us at the other end.
Insightful perspective into community and grief
