The Wrong Road Home

a story of treachery and deceit inspired by true events.


LITERARY REVIEWS


 "In this historical novel based on a true story, a man operates as a  doctor in both the United States and Ireland, despite having only a GED  and a handful of forged credentials. O'Connor's (The Barbarossa Covenant,  2015) novel straddles fiction and nonfiction, as he crafted much of it  from documents from a real-life acquaintance. An intimate look at a life  lived as a lie."

--- Kirkus Reviews 


"The story of Desmond Donahue (not his real name) is so fascinating that  I could hardly put it aside. O'Connor's story is so believable, one  tends to overlook the fiction part."

Virginia Luger-- Bismark Tribune 


"Fine entertainment filled with plenty of food for thought. Indeed, it's a lavish buffet."

Phil Jason, Ph.D. -- Florida Weekly


"If you like the book or the film Catch Me If You Can then  this crime story about a lonely man on the run, afraid ever to make  friends or allow himself to find love, might be for you."

Ryanan  Cl G. Veave -- Scene Magazine


"Do  the ends justify the means? Desmond Donahue would surely say no. His  fascinating story is a lesson for us all." 

Doug Gallogly -- Times of the Islands


"An impressively well written and inherently fascinating read from  beginning to end, "The Wrong Road Home" showcases Ian A. O'Connor as a  compelling, talented and exceptionally skillful author. Very highly  recommended for community library collections." 

John Burroughs -- Midwest Book Review" 


 "I highly recommend this book. It was fascinating and  entertaining. Because it is based on a true story and a real person it  has a depth that some novels lack. Personally, I cannot wait to read Ian  A. O'Connor's other books both fiction and non-fiction." 

Laura Hartman -- Writeknit


The Wrong Road Home based on the true story of Dr. Desmond Donahue captures readers from the first page.
