{"product_id":"book-itxv","title":"Homecoming","description":"\u003cp\u003eA man crosses a dead world for one reason: to get home.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYears earlier he rode off to war, leaving behind his wife, his children, and a promise sealed in a ring engraved with two simple words: \u003cem\u003eIt is forever\u003c\/em\u003e. The war that followed did not merely end nations-it erased them. Cities burned beneath atomic fire, governments vanished, and the few soldiers who survived found themselves wandering through a shattered world with no orders, no supplies, and nowhere left to belong.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut one man refuses to stop moving.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAcross ruined Europe, across the Atlantic in a stolen yacht, across deserts where nothing grows and the wind carries poison, he pushes north toward the memory of a house and a woman waiting beside a fire. Months become years. Hunger becomes normal. The world grows stranger with every mile-mutated animals roam the plains, the land itself seems altered, and no living human voice answers his calls.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStill he rides.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith a strange horned horse beneath him and a rifle across his saddle, he presses through the silent wasteland of the American interior. Every step carries him closer to the place he remembers. Every mile strengthens the hope that someone might still be waiting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThen one night he sees it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA small light in the window. A house standing where it always stood. Proof that the journey was not madness after all.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut home is not always what memory promises.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMiguel Hidalgo's \u003cem\u003eHomecoming\u003c\/em\u003e is a haunting post-apocalyptic tale of endurance, longing, and the terrible distance between memory and reality. Written during the early atomic age, the story captures the dread of a world destroyed by nuclear war while focusing on one man who refuses to give up the hope that something of his old life survived.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"INAudio","offers":[{"title":"Audiobook","offer_id":49449800630576,"sku":"BDitxv","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0879\/2784\/9264\/files\/itxv-Square-cover.jpg?v=1773640981","url":"https:\/\/downpour.com\/products\/book-itxv","provider":"Downpour","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
