Over dit e-boek

This New York Times–bestselling novel brings a beloved series to a close as a widower once more embarks on a life-changing walk to Key West.

After the death of his beloved wife, after the loss of his advertising business to his once-trusted partner, after bankruptcy forces him from his home, Alan Christoffersen embarked on a daring cross-country journey—a walk across America, from Seattle to Key West, with only the pack on his back. Through it all he learned life-changing lessons about love, sacrifice, and forgiveness.

Now Alan must face yet another seemingly unbearable crisis, one that threatens to upend his entire world again just as he had begun to heal from so much loss, and he is unsure whether he can continue toward his goal. It will take the care and support of a new friend—and the unexpected reappearance of an old one—for Alan to find the determination he needs to continue to Key West, where he hopes to end his journey and begin a new life.
