They Almost Always Come Home
ByPublisher Description
Finalist - 2011 Carol Award and 2010 RT Book Reviews Reviewers' Choice Award When Libby's husband Greg fails to return from a two-week canoe trip to the Canadian wilderness, the authorities soon write off his disappearance as an unhappy husband's escape from an empty marriage and unrewarding career. Their marriage might have survived if their daughter Lacey hadn't died . . . and if Greg hadn't been responsible. Libby enlists the aid of her wilderness savvy father-in-law and her faith-walking best friend to help her search for clues to her husband's disappearance . . . if for no other reason than to free her to move on. What the trio discovers in the search upends Libby's presumptions about her husband and rearranges her faith.

“An unusual storyline that packs an emotional wallop. A good read and listen.”
“Ruchti's books cause me to consider scenarios that never crossed my mind before. They Almost Always Come Home definitely did that. Some of the reviews I read here felt it was too drawn out or that it was too preachy. I disagree. I think to rush the story would have done a disservice to it. As it went on and on, I felt the despair and stress of the characters and the situation. As for preachy, it is Christian Fiction but I did not feel it was "in your face" at all. There were struggles with God and faith, but that is a very normal and real part of the Christian life.
This is my 2nd story by Ruchti and I am looking forward to more!”
