The Long Way Home

A Secret Refuge Series # 3

By: Lauraine Snelling

Narrated by: Meredith Mitchell

When a disastrous decision by the trainmaster forces Jesselynn Highwood and her companions to separate from the wagon train, she races back to Fort Laramie to find a guide to take them to Oregon. But the guide has a far different plan, and following her heart, Jesselynn agrees to join him, her ragtag band in tow.

Back east, Louisa Highwood and her brother, Zachary, are captured by Union soldiers for smuggling medical supplies into Richmond. Can Louisa find a way to obtain her brother's freedom before it's too late? The future of the Highwood family - and that of their beloved Twin Oaks - hangs in the balance. Will the war's end bring them together again?

Love the reading

I think this was read very well. The different voices were done very well. Very enjoyable.

Such a great book.

I love the series! I wish there was more! So much misery through the civil war but seeing the strengths of these women was enlightening.

Good book

Enjoyed the story line and the trials that the pioneers went through and the slaves

great review

I really enjoyed all 3 audio books in this series. By the end of the 3rd one, I can't help but hope Zachary will get his story as well.

The Long Way Home

I did enjoy this third book of the series the most. Getting use to the Narration and especially liked when the children would speak. So glad I did finish all three although it was not the best of Lauraine Snellings series. A tough ending to a war story results.
