Description
The Long Road Home As The Long Road Home begins on the eve of World War II, a band of three friends, Tom Cooper, Chris Cason, and Tom's six-year-younger sister, Casey, are at a crossroads in their lives. When Chris, the natural leader of the three, announces his intentions to join the Army Air Corps, Tom immediately decides to join with him. Casey, having always believed that she would grow up to marry Chris, is devastated. When war breaks out, however, Casey pitches in, eventually becoming a nurse's aide in the Red Cross. Bill Evans, a boy her own age, sees Chris's absence as his opportunity to win her love from Chris. Casey's heart, however, belongs to Chris, leaving Bill angry and resentful. With action in England during the Battle of Britain, Operation: Torch in North Africa, and a mission into Italy, The Long Road Home details the lives, loves and losses of the three friends as they continue to intersect. Plane crashes, secret weddings, and secret missions bring with them barriers, but Bill Evan's treachery poses the greatest threat to the friends' happiness. As though the Hand of God were writing the final chapter, Chris, Casey and Tom battle through the horrors of war and the terror of betrayal to reach the end of their long road home to love, happiness, and each other.
