This is the conclusion of the series and revolves around
Clay, the youngest brother. He’s part of
the Rangers, and the dream of his death is becoming more frequent. He’s been unhappy for a long time, so he sees
the premonition as a release and a certainty.
Leah is an orphan, and all she wants is a family. Getting together with Clay wasn’t what either
of them had planned, but he wants to see that she’s taken care of, and she
wants to have a family. As the time
approaches for Clay’s dream to come true, they begin to realize what they could
mean to each other.
I think it’s important to know that there’s rape and a subsequent
pregnancy in the book. The feelings
associated with it felt a bit glossed over, but you should be aware it’s in
there if the topic bothers you.
I enjoyed this book and getting to know the characters. I always like Sundin’s WWII novels and all the
little details. For example, I was
especially drawn to Clay’s Bible in this book.
I actually have my grandfather’s pocket New Testament (his has a
gold-plated steel cover), complete with the slipcover it was mailed in. Details like that remind me to remember the
past. History shouldn’t be forgotten.
A big thank you to the author for creating a nice post-war
wrap-up at the end of the book. Updates
on all three brothers wrapped up in a nice little bow. This was a good series that I really liked
reading. Good Book!
*I received a copy of this book from Revell through
NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
