For ten years, Gabe Talmadge languished in prison, convicted of a horrible crime. Now, he is free once again but unable to find work in the midst of the Great Depression. In desperation, Gabe returns to Ransom, Idaho, hoping that his uncaring father will give him food and shelter, if not love. But the prodigal son is not welcomed home. Hungry and hopeless, Gabe is rescued by the owner of a sheep ranch south of Ransom. Incredibly, Akira Macauley gives him a place to live and work to do. More than that, she gives him hope. But just as Gabe comes to believe that happiness may be within his grasp, his life begins to unravel. Gabe must either sink again into an abyss of hopelessness or cling to a hope, faith, and love stronger than any he has ever known.… (más)

Come Home
Wandering child, I am here, I am near. I speak. Do you listen? Arms open wide, I wait. I call. I woo. I weep. No matter how far you run, How high you climb, How low you sink, I do not change, Nor does My love for you. Return today. Heed the Shepherd's voice. Come home, My child. Come home. ---R.L.H.
