“Another heart rending tale of love, loss, and redemption from a master of moral fiction.” –Booklist

“A heartfelt love story celebrating the Greatest Generation.” –Kirkus Reviews

In war…for some—a battlefield wound is their “ticket home.” For two brothers, short line train men from Warm Springs, Oklahoma saving each other one more day from the merciless Japanese occupiers of the Philippines, meant their ticket was at least still possible. 

They had everything to live for, but silently knew each would give his life for the other. Now over 60 years later one of them must return to Manila to visit the resting place of his dear brother and ask for forgiveness. The secret he has kept and the burden he carried could not go with him to his grave; he needed redemption only his twin brother could offer.

TICKET HOME takes the readers on a journey back through youthful days of wonder, past the loss of innocence, and explores the power of the kind of love that can salvage dreams.

Two train men caught up in war; identical twins and in love with the same girl. Only one would return. Would it be Lucian returning to his wife Mary Jane? And what secret did she carry for both men she adored equally…from Lucian’s return in 1945 until today?  Find out in…TICKET HOME.
