Description
A family torn apart. A king with an iron fist. Will their love, faith, and loyalty be strong enough to help them survive war, persecution, and a cruel separation?
France, 1685. Jeanne is the wife of a wealthy merchant, but now she risks losing everything. Louis XIV’s soldiers will stop at nothing to convert the country’s Huguenot “heretics,” yet Jeanne and Jacob hold fast to their Protestant principals of liberty of conscience.
But will the punishment for their defiance be more than they can bear?
If Jeanne and Jacob can’t find a way to evade the soldiers’ clutches, their family will face a fate worse than poverty and imprisonment. They may never see each other again . . .
As Jacob becomes an indentured servant in the New World and Jeanne earns a meager living in Switzerland, a sudden disruption in European politics leaves their chance of a bittersweet homecoming more doubtful than ever . . .
Will the Delpech family survive the years of war, piracy, and persecution to reunite at last?
You’ll adore this brilliantly researched historical saga, because everyone loves heart-warming tales of family loyalty and a fight for survival against the odds.
