Frankie Byrne Tennyson stunned everyone when she decided to enlist in the U.S. Marine Corps. Now -- after bravely serving her country in Iraq -- she's finally come home. Home to a husband whose lingering feelings of abandonment make her wonder if their lives can ever be the same. Home to a daughter whose painful encounters with bullies can only be healed by a mother's love. And home to a father who still can't accept his daughter's decision to serve in spite of his own stellar career as a brigadier general. But the most difficult part about coming home lies within Frankie herself. To save everything she holds dear, she must face the toughest battle of her life . . .
A moving portrait of a modern American family, When She Comes Home reminds us that some things -- honor, acceptance, and, above all, love -- are truly worth fighting for.
