Continuation of the Bonner Family Saga series. This is the 4th book in the series.

From the back cover of the book
"In a magnificent new novel, award winner Sara Donati returns to turbulent early-nineteenth-century America and her bestselling Bonner Family Saga. Three generations of Bonner women will face theri most daunting challenges as they search for love and happiness...no matter where it takes them...2

"In the sultry summer of 1812, Elizabeth and Nathaniel Bonner welcome Nathaniel's half-Indian daughter, Hannah, back into the family fold. But Hannah, a healer trained in both Western and native traditions, comes home to Paradise, New York, near broken in the wake of a haunting tragedy. Hannah soon finds that even in Paradise she can't hide from the newest war between England and the young United State. Her bother Daniel enlists... and is captured. Now it is up to Hannah and her cousin Jennet to pull off a daring act of resuce and sacrifice that will plunge these courageous Bonner women into the greatest danger of all.."

This saga first caught my eye with the first book "Into the Wilderness" and as I read I was reunited with some old friends from the classic novel "The Last of the Mohicans", Hawkeye, and Chingachgook. I was enchanted from then on, and enjoyed reading the continuing story and knowing that Hawkeye and his family live in even if just in this saga. If you loved the novel by James Fenimore Cooper so will love Sara Donati's saga of the Bonner family... It is a must read...
