Set against the tumultuous backdrop of the French and Indian War, this passionate story follows Quentin Hale and Nicole Crane. In 1754, the first musket ball fired in Ohio Country marks the beginning of a brutal seven-year conflict that will dismantle France's empire and lead to the American Revolution. Amidst this chaos, Quentin Hale, a fearless gentleman-turned-scout, fights to protect his family plantation, Shadowbrook. Cormac Shea, a part-Irish, part-Indian woodsman, navigates his dual heritage, while Nicole struggles with her love for Hale and her calling to the convent, becoming a pawn in the British territorial ambitions. The narrative shifts between the Iroquois longhouses, Shadowbrook's elegant rooms, the frontier's untouched forests, and the cobbled streets of Québec. The author weaves a tale of passion, intrigue, faith, and betrayal, featuring unforgettable characters and historical figures, including a young George Washington. This richly textured narrative captures the conflict that ignited the quest for independence, blending ambition, war, and the transformative power of love and duty into a compelling read.
