During her childhood, Sandy (or "Shadow" as just about everyone knew her) was inseparable from her larger-than-life father, a World War II hero she adored. Sandy followed him everywhere, hung on his every word, and loved him with all her heart as only a young child can. It was more difficult to love him at some times than at others, especially when he was there and then he was gone - right in front of her eyes without ever leaving the house.

Twice now this author has tugged at my soul...

Where does The Final Service rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
At the absolute top of my book ranking...
What other book might you compare The Final Service to and why?
"Playing with the Enemy" also reached my heart and stirred so many emotions...
Which character – as performed by Pamela Klein – was your favorite?
Sandy Richards the main character...
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
Almost all of my emotions were in play...the book left me deeply in thought about my own relatives who I now recognise impacted me more than I can even know. The people of the depression-WW2 era survived and I am not often reminded of the attributes they shared of which I am so thankful.
Any additional comments?
Mr Moore is a very perceptive author who uses his gift to help all of understand the people in our lives who we may have misunderstood. He brings us to recognise that our parents/grandparents were so much like us but why we may not have understood why we are so much indebted to them...Thank you again Mr. Moore for opening my eyes even more... about those members of my own family who were of the greatest generation!

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 32
Clarinda, Iowa, population 5,000, sits two hours from anything. There, between the cornfields and hog yards, is a ball field with a bronze bust of a man named Merl Eberly, a baseball whisperer who specialized in second chances and lost causes. The statue was a gift from one of Merl's original long-shot projects, a skinny kid from the ghetto in Los Angeles who would one day become a beloved Hall of Fame shortstop: Ozzie Smith.
