The poignant and unforgettable conclusion to the series, A Prairie Heritage

Fall 1923. After a thirteen-year absence, Rose Thoresen is returning to her beloved RiverBend. It may well be her final visit.

Edmund O'Dell, Rose's son-in-law, has accepted the job as head of the Chicago Pinkerton office. As he prepares to move his family from Denver to Chicago, Rose faces a difficult decision: Will she continue at Palmer House where she has led many fallen women to Christ and mentored them in their faith, or will she give up this ministry and follow her daughter and grandchildren to their new home?

I am seventy-four years old, Lord, and I believe that the work you entrusted to me when we founded Palmer House should now pass to Sarah and Olive. By your grace, Lord God, they are ready to assume this great and wonderful responsibility. I pray you make them fruitful branches in your kingdom, always abiding in the vine, Christ Jesus. As for me? I will go with my daughter Joy and her family to Chicago and pour what love, strength, and time I have left into Joy, Edmund, and their children.

Rose asks only one thing of her son-in-law. Edmund, when we take the train east, I would like to stop in RiverBend and spend several days there. I have not seen my friends and Jan's family in many years. Not since Jan left us and entered heaven.

O'Dell readily agrees to Rose's request.

As the train chugs into RiverBend's little station, Rose knows the time she spends here will be filled with cherished memories, the sweet entwined with the bittersweet.

Father, thank you for the precious days before me. In them all, please help me to love without measure and bring glory to your name.

Vikki writes the kind of faith-filled fiction that hooks you within the first few pages, will not let you go until you have finished, and leaves you wishing for more.
-Janis Braun, Seattle, Washington

Her books are not just for 'chicks'! I was amazed how engrossed I became in the lives of Vikki's characters, and how much I could relate to their situations.
-Ed Dunne, Los Angeles

Be prepared to put life on hold. That's all I have to say!
-Rebecca H., New Jersey

You will laugh, you will cry but, most of all, you will be uplifted.
