Book review
“The Broken Road”
by Richard Paul Evans
In “The Broken Road” by
Richard Paul Evans, Chicago
celebrity Charles James can’t
shake the nightmare that
wakes him each night. He sees
himself walking down a long,
broken highway, the sides of
which are lit in flames. Where
is he going? Why is he walk-
ing? What is the wailing he
hears around him?
By day, he wonders why

Coming from a childhood
of poverty and pain, Charles
finally has the life he’s
dreamed of. But now, at the
pinnacle of his career, he’s
started to wonder if he wanted
the wrong things. His wealth

personality and his ability to
seduce people out of their
hard-earned money.

the type of man he’s become.
Then a twist of fate changes
everything. Charles is granted
something remarkable: a sec-
ond chance. The question is,
what will he do with it?
“The Broken Road” is the
first book in a much-anticipat-
ed new trilogy by best-selling
author Richard Paul Evans. It
is an engrossing, contempla-
tive story of redemption and
grace and the power of second
chances. It is an epic journey
you won’t soon forget.
