    When a 70-year-old woman finds a five-year-old girl abandoned on her doorstep, she is thrust into a sorrowful past that can only be conquered with the help of the girl who opened her memory - the very girl she is trying to save. This first novel, according to author Jacquelyn Mitchard, is one of "exquisite power, honesty, and conviction...quite nearly without flaws."

    S. Davis says: "Rush Home Road"
    "A fascinating story, brilliantly narrated."

    Story
    What made the experience of listening to Rush Home Road the most enjoyable?

    The story was compelling and the narration was so vivid I could see every character in vivd detail. They stayed in my thoughts long after I finished reading.


    What was one of the most memorable moments of Rush Home Road?

    Kindness and generosity juxtaposed to indifference and cruelty were themes that played throughout the story. Some people just shouldn't be parents and the viciousness of their
    words and actions is devastating.


    Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

    You know how good an audiobook is when you keep listening even though you're so sleepy your eyes burn and the first thing you want to do the next morning is turn on your Kindle before you even make coffee. I look forward to experiencing another book by Lori Lansens and I could listen to Ruby Dee read anything, anytime, anywhere.
