Carrie McGavock is forced to care for the wounded and dying soldiers that are brought to her home, Carnton, after the Battle of Franklin during the Civil War. While tending the wounded, she meets Zachariah, and becomes immediately fascinated with him. During his time at Carnton, they form a relationship that affect them both profoundly. Part romance, part historical fiction, this is the story of Carrie and how she became the voice and guardian of the men who died at the Battle of Franklin.
I did not really care for this book. The subject is interesting and I would be interested in reading more about Carnton, but I found this book overall to be quite boring. At times it seemed to drag on and I had a hard time sticking with it. Personally, I would not recommend this book. On the plus side, it has made me more interested in reading more from this time period. I also think it would be fun to visit Carnton and learn more about the woman who inspired the book.
