Jim Stonebridge lives a solitary life with his father, a haunted man, on an apple estate in deepest Vermont. The year is 1932 and the grand house, once filled with laughter and parties, now stagnates under the weight of secrets and stories untold. Jim is out fishing in the quietness of the woods one day when he spots a plane banking low over the river. From behind the pilot streams a mass of balloons, held by a woman with rich russet hair. Madeleine Scott, a spirited bohemian, bursts into their lives, bringing light and laughter to the orchard once more. But with the bittersweet unravelling that love brings come memories. Of a friendship forged on battlefields and a past denied. Of Obadaiah Nelson, a man born in the bayou who knows the cost of war. Now it is time for reparation. Good Hope Road is the sweeping story of two generations and love that binds, of courage and comradeship, and the soaring strength of the human spirit.
