Produktinformationen zu „Valley of Hope (ePub)“
Boyd Houston joined the Confederate Army after selling his fishing boat and cottage on the coast of South Carolina. Within weeks, his detachment is ordered to march to a remote mountain town in Western Virginia to confront Union forces encamped there. Control of turnpikes, supply lines and the materials of war is at stake. His detachment is routed by an inferior force, and he is among those grievously wounded and left behind. Almost a hundred Confederate soldiers are captured, and scores lost their lives. He is taken prisoner and transferred to the home of a local townsman to recuperate. There, he meets Nellie, a beautiful slave woman, and Lexus, a local debutante.
Boyd struggles with the constraints of his culture as he attempts to sort out his feelings for the two young women. An attempted slave escape complicates the decision he is forced to make. Meanwhile, he and his friend, Charlie, confront a ring of thieves and murderers to obtain justice for the killing of a friend. Unbeknownst to Boyd, his life is to be changed forever.
