Read by Edward Holland.
When Reuben Land's older brother Davy kills two marauders who have come to harm the family, the town is divided between those who see him as a hero and those who see him as a cold-blooded murderer. On the morning of the trial, Davy escapes and his family sets out in search of him. With Jeremiah at the helm, the family covers territory far more glorious than even the Badlands. By the time the journey is over, they will have traversed boundaries of a different nature entirely. Set in the 1960s and marked by a soul-expanding sense of place, Peace Like a River is a heroic quest, a tragedy, a romance, and a heartfelt meditation on the possibility of magic in the everyday world.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Uplifting submitted by Funnysox on June 13, 2015, 1:29pm This book gives so much. There are parallel plot lines, ethical dilemmas, miracles, and even romance. This book has you experiencing the emotions of the characters and thinking deeply along with them right from the beginning. The book will give you plenty to think about and decide for yourself. This is one of my favorite fiction books-and I don't like most fiction.
