Opis

Young Margaret Waters' innocent life was turned upside down when she met the mysterious Dr. Miles Deihl. He was a dark wild thing; exuding raw sensuality and emanating an inaudible primal groaning. He was not at all like her childhood beau; the down to earth Swede, Nathan Stillman. Life becomes a tangle of powerful emotions, full of unsuspected twists and turns. There's a price to be paid for the choices we make. People make mistakes. Whether due to bad judgement or faulty logic, we all falter in our quest for personal happiness. Some individuals spend a lifetime attempting to redeem themselves; some don't care to try. A few succeed; it's impossible for others. We remember the words of Alexander Pope: "To err is human; to forgive, divine." Absolution is an epic novel set in the early 1800's, when the Ohio Territory was first being settled. It's a story of courage, disappointments, love, hate, broken dreams, and dreams coming true. It's about the "coming of age" for young pioneers facing the perils of survival in an untamed wilderness. It recounts the fall of the righteous and their eventual absolution.
