CAPTIVATING CIVIL WAR FICTION INSPIRED BY HISTORICAL EVENTS
Amid talk of war, Augusta Dabney tends her younger siblings and dying father. But when hatred sparks tragedy, peace is but a shattered memory. Heartbroken and desperate, Augusta searches for a way to protect all she holds dear.
Defying family and friends, Dr. James Hill declines a prestigious commission in the Confederate Army to join the Union cause as a Regimental Surgeon. When the Dabney farm becomes a crossroads of colliding forces, Major Hill commandeers their barn for a hospital.
He is running from his legacy, seeking penance for his past.
She is desperate to preserve hers, at any cost.
As a wise, former slave nurtures James’s battered faith, cynicism crumbles, and James discovers grace and belonging with Augusta and her family unlike any he’s ever known, even as he must face the horrors of war and the evil it breeds.
But when James comes face to face with his past, secrets unravel until deception ends in disaster, leaving Augusta with only one option.
And it is unthinkable.
My Review
When the Mountains Wept is a historical fiction novel that captures the struggles and tough choices faced by brave individuals during the American Civil War.
The story centers on Augusta Dabney, who takes care of her younger siblings and her ailing father. She is a determined young woman willing to do whatever it takes to protect her family. We also meet Dr. James Hill, who seeks a better life away from his family's troubled past.
