The
final in this critically acclaimed trilogy!
1987. A visit from a long-lost relative brings
the Langdons together again on the family farm; a place almost unrecognisable
from the remote Iowan farmland Walter and Rosanna once owned. The family have
spread across the US, and whilst some have stayed reliably unchanged, others
have evolved with the times.
