Back from the war in Afghanistan that included a stay at Walter Reed hospital, Daniel Newcomb is hitchhiking across the United States on his way home to Alaska when he takes a detour in mountainous Oregon in search for work. After he is dropped off at Multnomah Falls, Dan has no idea of the challenges that lie ahead for him in the coming months.

After he agrees to what he thinks will be a mundane housesitting job at a remote cabin for the winter, it is not long before unexpected events transform the nature of his job. Even as he battles foul weather, a persistent family of dogs, and two-legged intruders, Dan finds time to learn to fly a small plane. Months later as his stint in Oregon ends and Daniel finally returns to Alaska with an adopted puppy in tow, he begins a new chapter that includes long-awaited reunions, love, and fulfilling his dream of becoming a bush pilot.

Detour in Oregon is the compelling tale of an Afghanistan War veterans journey home from the battlefields to Alaska as unlikely encounters and powerful emotions play an important part in shaping his future.
