“The time has come when I must change my plan….” She thought she’d saved them all, but now a more nefarious plot emerges, increasing the stakes and threatening to bring a nation to its knees. Displaced, rejected, forsaken… Annabelle finds herself pulled farther from home and ever closer to the malicious repercussions of war. Elmira prison is filled beyond its capacity, and starving men are left shivering in threadbare clothing beneath paltry shelters. Among the thousands of captured and hopeless Confederates, she searches to find the one man who could be the key to saving her inheritance. Wounded, desperate, defeated… Matthew yearns for peace away from Washington. Yet, he can never seem to escape his ties to a frantic madman seeking vengeance. Lurking in the shadows at every turn, the cycle of retribution continually brings yet another danger, and Matthew will do everything in his power to protect the woman he loves – even if it means keeping her from the truth. In the final dark day days of war, Matthew sets his hopes on Annabelle. She could be the lighthouse that guides him out of the ever encroaching sea of chaos – if only they can allow love and trust to overcome their prideful hearts.

Book Author: Stephenia McGee
What do you like about this book:
"We meet this evening, not in sorrow, but in gladness of heart." - Abraham Lincoln
The events surrounding the close of the Civil War were fraught with danger, desperation, and despondency on both sides of the conflict. Annabelle Ross and Matthew Daniels; thrust together by familial circumstances beyond their control, have managed to make it to Elmira, New York where Matthew's brother, George is believed to be imprisoned. Privy to information about dark intentions towards the president, they have walked a fragile line between hope and despair, while trying to cloak their personal feelings, for it is believed that Annabelle is betrothed to Matthew's brother, should he live.
Enjoy this adventurous trek through our nation's history, as the lost is found, the unthinkable happens, and love never fails. The "Liberator Series" by Stephenia McGee is an outstanding blend of fact and fiction.
