★ The New Thriller Sensation
A Long Journey Home
By George Sullivan
One stormy night on a city bridge changes everything. Shot, separated from his brother, and cast into rushing dark waters, young Conner wakes up stranded in the dense jungles of Colombia—surrounded by cartels, ancient ruins, and an impossible path back home.
“With no papers, no identity, and enemies closing in, he had only three weapons left: his faith, his integrity, and his grit.”

George was fortunate to travel many times in his youth from the Midwest to Central America. He always remembered the different people and their stories during his travels. Later in life, he traveled to Eastern Europe.
