    About this ebook

    Sometimes saving the person you love can cost you everything.

    There is one person that ties Oliver Richter to this world: his wife Kai. For Kai, Oliver is the keeper of her secrets.

    When her telepathy spirals out of control and inundates her mind with the thoughts and emotions of everyone within a half-mile radius, the life they built together in Manhattan is threatened.

    To save her, Oliver brings her to the hometown he abandoned—Butternut, Wisconsin—where the secrets of his past remain buried. But the past has a way of refusing to stay dead. Can Kai save Oliver before his secrets claim their future?
    An emotionally powerful debut, The Six Train to Wisconsin pushes the bounds of love as it explores devotion, forgiveness and acceptance.

    • 4/5
      This book had an interesting storyline, but never the right combination of trust between anyone. The ending resolution seemed flimsy to me.
    • 3/5
      This book is about a young man, Oliver, who is devoted to his wife, Kai, who happens to be a telepath. Because she is so receptive to the pain and ugliness all around her, her mind has become fragile and she is at almost constant risk of suicide, especially living in a place like Manhattan. To save her, Oliver gives up everything, “kidnaps” her, and takes her to an old house he inherited in out-of-the-way Butternut, Wisconsin.But of course, evil isn’t restricted to New York, and soon Kai is in trouble again, both mentally and physically.Most of the story, told in alternate chapters by Kai and Oliver, has two main focuses: Kai’s telepathy and the problems it causes, and the strain in their marriage produced by returning to the place where Oliver grew up, and where his ex-girlfriend Mickey is still in love with him. Although the book was compulsively readable, at the same time I found Kai’s continued histrionics and immaturity very annoying. These aspects to Kai also marred the ending, which once again showed, in my opinion, how Kai could not overcome these weaknesses. Realistic? I didn’t think so, in light of Oliver’s devotion to her. And the fact that nobody could figure out who the bad guy was? Also seemed improbable.
