It is a look at a mans life when he has to go home to his childhood home to be cared for by his estranged father after an accident. While there the main character, Burke, works through what is essentailly his mid-life chrisis. He ends up reading a book that was wrritten by the late of husband of his fathers girlfriend about the history of the area in the Civil War and finds one of the letters fascinating enough to research it. Along the way he meets new friends and lovers who help him get to his happy place. (  ) Scoshie | Dec 6, 2011 | Questa recensione è stata scritta per gli Omaggi dei Membri di LibraryThing . Truth be told, I really enjoyed this book. The relationships between Burke and the other characters were intriguing. Burke's digging into the past to learn more about the people in the picture grabbed my attention and held it. Once I started reading, I was absorbed by the story and couldn't wait to read more. One word of caution, though, for those, like me, who are straight - please keep an open mind when you read Mr. Ford's work. If you can look beyond the m/m sex, I think you will find a most enjoyable read! (  ) bagejew | Jul 29, 2011 | Questa recensione è stata scritta per gli Omaggi dei Membri di LibraryThing . I found the book quite interesting, and finished it in one day. The fact that Burke was gay, did not offend me. The graphic m/m sex scenes DID offend me. If it weren't for that, I would have given it more stars. ( ) croknot1 | Jul 19, 2011 | Questa recensione è stata scritta per gli Omaggi dei Membri di LibraryThing .

When a car accident leaves forty-year-old Burke Crenshaw in need of temporary full-time care, he finds himself back in the Vermont home where he grew up as be begins the long recuperation. A burgeoning relationship with the twenty-year-old son of Burke's high school best friend draws him out of himself and into the community he left behind. Exploring local history, he discovers an intriguing series of letters from a Civil War soldier to his fiance. With the help of librarian Sam Guffrey, he begins to research a 125-year-old mystery that seems to be reaching into the present day. The more Burke delves into the past, the more he's forced to confront the person he has become: the choices he made and those he avoided, his ideas of what it takes to be a successful gay man, his feelings about his mother's death, and the suppressed tension that simmers between himself and his father.
