An epic saga from USA Today Bestselling author Gayle Callen that follows one family, one building, from the American Revolution to the Roaring Twenties to modern day Manhattan.
For two hundred and fifty years, the Featherstone women have defended their families and Harbor House, the building that has sheltered and provided for them.
The Revolution Abigail Featherstone’s husband died fighting the British invasion of New York. Harbor House provides her a way to fight back—she risks everything by spying on the Redcoats quartered in the rooms above her tavern.
Prohibition After her father is jailed, flapper Lillian Featherstone gives up her college dreams to manage their historic family restaurant in Harbor House. The dangerous stand she takes against the mob that entangled her father is eclipsed only by her forbidden romance with a charismatic Harlem jazz musician.
Today Two centuries of family history aren’t enough to make newly widowed Pamela Featherstone Mosher want to hold on to the run-down building she’s inherited. She’s ready to sell the property and move on from her painful past. But cleaning out Harbor House reveals the struggles and secrets of her female ancestors, and what they endured to keep their families safe. Can the bravery and resilience of the Featherstone women give Pamela the courage to follow her heart?
