Synopsis

Long Trail Home is part of a six-book series about four generations of the Morgan family living, fighting, and thriving amidst a turbulent Texas history spanning from 1845 to 1896.  Although a series, each book can be read on its own.

When Riley Morgan returns home after fighting in the War Between the States, he is excited to see his parents and fiancée again. But he soon learns that his parents are gone and the woman he loved is married.

Riley takes a job at the Wilcox School for the blind just to get by. He keeps his heart closed off but a pretty blind woman, Annie, threatens to steal it.

Through painful circumstances, Riley and Annie learn that the loving and sovereign hand of God cannot be thwarted.

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

We don't know where, how, or by whom. But we know it is coming...

"When trying to kill a dragon, it is never wise to attack directly. The dragon's greatest weapons of destruction-his eyes, his teeth, his claws, and his fire-breathing mouth-are all up front."

He then walked over to the corner where boxes of Surface-to-Air missiles were stacked. "No," he said, "to kill a dragon you must creep up from behind and grab it by its tail."

A fiery FBI agent is frustrated with too much paperwork and not enough action. An unwitting college professor stumbles upon a series of ominous Middle Eastern photographs. And a devastated Israeli widower goes on the offensive to avenge his loss. Now, they all must work together to figure out what's next.

The strike is imminent and the Dragon is vulnerable...

It is time.
