THE LONG ROAD HOME

About the Book

The following story ensnares the lives of several families who live or have moved to Silver Springs, Arkansas. People find that there is something or someone living in the surrounding forest, which strikes and out and kills at any time. When June Rave’s sister in law is murdered and one of the detectives is found dead; his best friend is called in. Jay Martin, a private detective catches a plane from New York to help investigate the case. June and her brother Ray Walker become paranoid, thinking it could be someone in their past lives. Martin's investigation is somewhat interrupted by his growing love for June’s daughter Julie. We meet the rest of June’s family as tragedy strikes once again. We weave in and out of the Bowmont family's lives as we discover what heart- aches Mrs. Beaumont has endured from her husband and sons. We are taken all over the southern states as the investigation follows the Bowmont brothers; each are suspected of different crimes.

Sheriff Hilstone and Jay Martin discover that once Slade Bowmont is captured, he would probably get off scot-free for his crimes. The ending will not be what you would expect, and it may even provoke you. Sometimes even the dealer of life that has dealt you all the losing hands, has mercy and deals you a hand that wins.
