Infos

A novel of love, revenge, and redemption set during three crucial years of the Mexican Revolution (1910-13).When an eccentric Mexican general dies and leaves his entire fortune to Isabel Brentt, the American daughter-in-law he never met, his widow suspects foul play and seeks revenge against the young woman.This is a story of love, the backlash of revenge, and the choices that define us: A young lawyer sets off on a quest to find the truth about the general s death. A bodyguard is ordered to murder the man he is supposed to protect. A ruthless criminal falls in love with a prostitute. A priest is forced to maintain an elaborate lie. An accused patricide seeks redemption through a brotherhood of criminals. Above all, it is Isabel s exploration of the problem of evil and of prayer as a pathway to inner freedom.Sylvia Montgomery Shaw invites readers to follow the continuing romance of Benjamin and Isabel as both seek their freedom against the backdrop of a brutal war and learn the unexpected strength that can come from one s inner will.
