BLURB

One woman embarks upon an impossible quest in a town ravaged and bruised by war — and one man must confront the past in the very place that almost killed him.

1866, Tennessee. According to the last letter received from her twin brother, Ryan, by Irish immigrant Catriona O’Toole, he was being sent to Franklin, Tennessee, where, as a conscripted Confederate soldier, he possibly witnessed the bloody Battle of Franklin, which took the lives of thousands. In pursuit of him, Catriona leaves behind the lush green of her Irish homeland, with nothing in her name but for the amount of cash Ryan sent to her family. Catriona, now the sole provider of her seven-year – old spitfire niece, Nora, hopes to reunite the siblings — the only remaining members of their devastated family.
