Book Description:
It's a journey full of danger, excitement--and surprises. Eighteen thousand miles between New York and California. The threat of pursuit, the perils of yellow fever, the problems of taking on unexpected passengers, and the rigors of rounding the Horn are only the beginning. For brave, impulsive Rafer Maddox, this trip will introduce him to a boy and to a woman who will change his life forever--and bring his own soul closer to the will of the Almighty. Winds of Promise brings a colorful cast of characters and an unforgettable era alive in rich and historically accurate detail.

This was a decent read, but not as good as other Brock & Bodie Thoene books. It is short, and thus tends to be a bit short on detail. I just didn't connect with the characters that much in this book.
