(South African journalist Monica Brunetti had it all -- promising career, loving family, marriage-minded boyfriend. Then a life-changing encounter landed her in a hospital bed next to gregarious Ella Nkhoma, whose wit and caring challenged Monica's worldview. Their remarkable friendship would lead Monica far from the gated white suburbs, and toward a parting that left both women transformed . . . and Monica the mother of two sons.

Set against the dynamic patchwork of South Africa, The Road to Home is an inspiring story of love, courage and everyday miracles.
