Book Description

October 1, 2007
A new Monica Brunetti novel from 2007 Christy® Award winner Vanessa Del Fabbro

In the picture-perfect seaside village of Lady Helen, South Africa, Monica Brunetti has the life of her dreams -- two adopted sons, fulfilling work, loyal friends and a special closeness with her former housekeeper, Francina. What's more, she's in love.

Then everything comes tumbling down.

Monica's happiness is destroyed by a young girl's resentment. Francina, too, is plunged into grief. And a series of crimes rocks the village.

Yet Monica must go on, as a mother and a journalist and a woman of faith -- who believes, even in her darkest hour, that the risks of love are worth taking.

A story that transposes the dark era of South African racial struggles with the healing brilliance of two women who risk everything to reach for each other, The Road to Home is an amazing first novel." -- Deborah Bedford, USA Today bestselling author of When You Believe

"This touching debut novel is well worth purchasing." -- Library Journal on The Road to Home
