Overview

Norfolk, England, 1836. When Frances Cartner attends an interview for a maid position at Renton House Farm, she gets more than she bargained for. A job and a future husband. She and Dan Swain, a young ploughman with big American dreams, fall in love, marry and quickly have three children. Thirteen years later, Dan travels to America alone to get established before his wife and children follow, and finds himself in a completely contrasting world to his lowly, God-fearing life in Norfolk. He sets himself up in business, works long hours and the money starts rolling in. But his faith in God is tested by what he sees around him and his growing love of money. Can Dan stay on the right side of the law and resist female temptation? Back home in Norfolk, however, Frances is in dire straits. She and her children are living in the workhouse and they need Dan to come home, so she writes to him in the hope that he will return and save them from such poverty and hardship. What will Dan do? Return to the bosom of his family and salvage his faith and his love for his wife? Or stay in America, enjoy a better quality of life, and cast aside his memories of that one isolated incident which will eventually seal his fate? Find out in this epic historical romance where excitement, adventure and danger hide around every corner.
