Tracie Peterson Begins Compelling New Series Set on the
1840s Frontier
Grace Martindale has known more than her share of hardship.
After her parents died, raising her two younger sisters
became her responsibility. A hasty marriage to a minister
who is heading to the untamed West seemed like an
opportunity for a fresh start, but a cholera outbreak along
the wagon trail has left Grace a widow in a very precarious
position.
Having learned natural remedies and midwifery from her
mother, Grace seeks an opportunity to use her skills for the
benefit of others. So when she and her sisters arrive at the
Whitman mission in "Oregon Country," she decides to stay
rather than push on.
With the help of Alex Armistead, a French-American fur
trapper, Grace begins to provide care for her neighbors,
including some of the native populace. But not everyone
welcomes her skills--or her presence--and soon Grace finds
herself and those she loves in more danger than she imagined
possible.
