Two brothers, two countries, and two loves come alive in the mid 1800’s in this sweeping historical fiction novel.
Patrick Rathmore has left Ireland after the great potato famine to find a better life in America. On the ship over he befriends Father Murphy, an Irishman now living in New York. After working with the Murphy family for a few years, Patrick purchases his own plantation, heads south, and takes up farming. It’s not always easy being a stranger in a new land, but with hard work comes a payoff, which in Patrick’s case, includes love with southern belle, Camille Bradford.
As a university student in Dublin, Liam Rathmore wants to help his fellow countrymen regain land and property stolen by the English, so he takes up with the Revolutionaries. When Ireland needs funds to help feed and arm the people after the famine, he marries a woman he hardly knows. Orla Wicklow is a doctor’s daughter set in her ways, but she comes with a dowry. After Liam makes another sacrifice for the cause, Orla sails to America to meet her husband’s family and to start a new life in medicine.
Throughout the years of separation, there will be joy and happiness, tests and trials. But in the end, it’s love and the invisible bonds between family that makes every struggle worthwhile.
