With Nana and the kids, he is talking about the future. Until John Sampson arrives and begs him to take on one last case - his best friend has been accused of an horrific triple murder. Three women were knifed at an Army base. His fingerprints and DNA have been found - but Sampson's friend swears he has been framed, and that Alex is his only hope.Uncovering evidence of a series of suspicious murder convictions, Alex and Sampson are determined to infiltrate the closed world of the military. But what is the army trying to hide? And do the mysterious symbols daubed on the homes of the accused mean that there are more sinister forces at work?

Hardcover. Condition: As New condition. Dust Jacket Condition: As New dust jacket. Second printing. Salt Lake City, Utah: Deseret Book Company, 1997. As New condition in As New dust jacket. Bright, clean, square, tight, and unmarked. Sharp corners. Not a book club edition. Not price clipped ($17.95). No owner's name or bookplate. No remainder mark. Pages are fresh and crisp -- obviously never read. From the Dust Jacket: "Latter-day Saints often look to Joseph Smith's time in order to understand Church history. But Church history encompasses all that has occurred in the Church since that vital era, and each age faces its own challenges. Set in World War II, CHILDREN OF THE PROMISE is an epic series that will take you to the battlefront, to Germany, Japan, and the Philippines. But it will also take you to the home front in the Salt Lake Valley, where an ordinary LDS family struggles to survive Wally Thomas didn't know how many days and nights he had been marching up the coast of the Bataan Peninsula. He was almost too numb to think, too full of pain. He tried to keep a steady pace, but the guards pressured the prisoners to keep moving, forced them close together, and in their exhaustion the men stumbled and knocked each other off stride. When that happened, the extra effort was almost overwhelming; there were times when Wally thought he would do down - and not get up - the way so many other prisoners had already done. With each day getting worse in the Bataan death march, Wally could die of hunger, exposure, or even violence. Will his growing faith be enough to pull him through? Bobbi, now a nurse in the navy, meets a handsome young officer. She's not sure how she feels about him, however, or whether he feels anything at all for her. Alex is in training as a paratrooper, but can he stick it out? And even if he can, how can he bring himself to fight the German people, whom he learned to love on his mission? Even young Gene knows he'll be joining the service, but he wonders what kind of a soldier he'll make. In SINCE YOU WENT AWAY the second volume of the CHILDREN OF THE PROMISE series, author Dean Hughes continues his saga of the Thomas family as they struggle to survive World War II. If you're interested in Church or world history, or if you're simply looking for a powerful LDS novel, you won't want to miss SINCE YOU WENT AWAY.". Second printing. Hardcover.
