Little did Maggie Duncan know how great the sacrifice she would be making. Forty-seven years have passed since she was separated from her beloved Scotland and her beloved husband, Ian.
More than time and oceans seem to have conspired to keep them apart, but Maggie continues to trust in the Lord and never gives up hope.
What The Lady of Stonewycke’s Readers Say….
I love how Christian faith is woven throughout this series. This is what draws me most to these books. Scottish heritage, language, customs, and people are portrayed so realistically, I feel like I’ve traveled there. The characters change and grow so much over the three novels! Learning to trust God through extreme circumstances is a compelling theme for our times, albeit different than being imprisoned in 19th century Scottish conditions or facing the rigors of the early pioneers crossing America.
It’s incredibly hard to write a review of this book without introducing a major spoiler. The ending was unexpected, a sweet twist that was carefully hidden. When everything seemed poignantly tragic, a gentle restoration began.
I haven’t cried on a book in literally years. I bawled.
