Publisher's summary

It's one year after the death of her husband and twin teenagers, and Miriam Tedesco has lost faith in humanity and herself. When a bouquet of flowers that her husband always sends on their anniversary shows up at her workplace, she completely unravels. With the help of her best friend, she realizes that it's time to pick up the pieces and begin to move on. Step one is not even cleaning out her family's possessions but just taking inventory, starting with her daughter's room. But when she opens her daughter's computer, she stumbles across a program her daughter has created detailing an automated cross-country road trip, for her and her husband to take as soon-to-be empty nesters.

Seeing and hearing the video clips of her kids embedded in the program, Miriam is determined to take this trip for her children. Armed with her husband's guitar, her daughter's cello, and her son's unfinished piano sonata, she embarks on a pilgrimage to grieve the family she fears she never loved enough.

Soon, tornadoes, impromptu concerts, and an unlikely friendship bring Miriam’s world back to life...whether she's prepared for it or not. But as she struggles to keep her focus on the reason she set out on this journey, she has to confront the possibility that the best way to honor her family may be to accept the truths she never wanted to face.

Hopeful, honest, and tender, A Song for the Road is about courage, vulnerability, and forgiveness, even of yourself, when it really matters.

I just finished the book but found that I am only beginning to journey with these beloved characters. They will always be with M

I have just finished the book, but have found thatI am only beginning to journey with these beloved characters. They were so real that I found myself praying for them as leapt into my heart as do mortals who share their story and this planet with me. It is an honor to be part of their lives. Kudos to all involved!
