Spring, 1945. The war in Europe is nearing its end when Army medic Richard Dare returns home to Maine. Life in his back-woods hometown has carried on much the same as it always has, from the sermons of his minister father to the teasing flirtations of Grace, the girl he never forgot. But it's soon clear that two years of combat have changed him irrevocably, and not only because of the wounds he sustained. As he wrestles with the mystery of how to go on when so much of what-and who-he loved has been lost, Richard faces another impossible battle: the homecoming of a soldier.
Set against the backdrop of rural New England and the sweeping expanse of the European Theater of Operations, Holland Road is a story of brotherhood, faith, and the loss of these things, told by a non-combatant knee-deep in death.
