At the dawn of World War II, in rural Oklahoma, identical twins Lucien and Norman Parker are bound by the tragic death of their mother, their railroad jobs, and an abiding well of brotherly devotion. But when both fall for the prettiest girl in town, they learn the hard way that they can't share everything. It is brash Lucien who finally wins her hand, while gentle Norman continues to cherish her. At last, reunited, and reconciled, in the war-torn South Pacific, Lucien and Norman fight side by side. But one brother will be burdened with the heartbreaking loss of the other--and the weight of a shocking secret that will haunt him for decades to come...
James Michael Pratt's Ticket Home takes readers on a journey back to the youthful days of innocence, to the loss of innocence, and to the power of love that can salvage dreams.
