Resumen del Editor

The autumn wind of an Indiana night blows across the cemetery. It plays a malevolent, whistling tune through the trees of the cemetery as Peter Baker stands motionless, surveying the soft, brown earth that holds his beloved wife, Veronica. Tears well up in his eyes as he gazes down upon the inscription on her gravestone. He comes here a lot now, reminiscing over all the good times he had with Veronica, and their private conversations. An aspiring poet, something she wrote for him still haunts his dreams at night: this I will remember when the rest of life is through, the finest thing I have ever done was simply loving you.

The feelings he'd had to endure - anger, abandonment, denial, disbelief, social withdrawl, and then even guilt - made him feel powerless over his own destiny. And crimes like these - unexpected, violent, and forever - are hard enough to bear without the fact that the victim's killer has yet to be brought to justice.

But now Peter has crossed over the edge of his normally moral ground and intends to kill the man responsible for his wife's death. Once a God-fearing man, he will now embark on a personal vendetta to commit murder - in spite of the obvious and long lasting effect it will have on his mind, heart, and most of all, his soul.

Will Peter toss aside his faith in God and take another's life, or will he realize that possibly spending the rest of his life behind bars isn't worth the few moments of satisfaction he'd gain from taking another man's life, to fall from grace with God?

In The Long Journey Home, author David Boyer provides a glimpse into the wounded soul of a man who believes that personal revenge may be the only way to find his way back to God.
