Way Back: The Hallway Between

Richard Worthington spent thirty years building a life that looked successful from every angle except the one that mattered.On Christmas Eve, a car accident leaves him suspended in a place outside ordinary time — a quiet threshold between memory, history, grief, and judgment. Guided by Nicholas of Myra through moments that shaped faith and civilization, Richard witnesses the Christmas Truce of 1914, the Council of Nicaea, and fragments of the life of Christ while confronting the distance between who he became and who he was meant to be.But The Way Back is not a story about spectacle.It is a story about exhaustion.About the unbearable weight of a life lived slightly wrong for far too long.About the things ambition cannot repair.About the quiet possibility that redemption may still exist for those willing to face what they abandoned.Literary, intimate, historically textured, and spiritually reflective, The Way Back: The Hallway Between asks whether a person can still return to what mattered most after spending a lifetime moving away from it.For readers of literary fiction with a spiritual spine.
