Soon both families are in the midst of the growing conflict rising between the workers at the granite quarry that Tavin’s father owns and operates. When a series of near-fatal accidents occur, Tavin must figure out who is behind the attacks before someone gets killed.

Summary
Tracie Peterson always writes a great book! This book, as with the others in this series, are set in Minnesota. It is always interesting to read about the unique traditions and ways of the old country that came with the settlers of America. In The Quarryman's Bride, we read about the tradition of the youngest daughter being expected to give up any thoughts of marriage and family in order to live with and care for her parents in their old age. Leads one to wonder at all sorts of other questions: What if there are no daughters- ¬does this \"job\" fall to a son? What if there are no children¬¬then what? It is interesting to see how this issue is resolved in the novel, along with issues revolving around unionization. Ms. Peterson's dialogue is always believable and thought¬provoking.
