Synopsis

Third Novel in the St. Simons Trilogy

A timeless tale of one man's devotion toward the women he loves, the sorrow of lost love, and the beautiful island on which compassion and kindness abound.
In this masterful novel by Eugenia Price, a wealthy young northerner, Anson Dodge, discovers new meaning in his life on St. Simons Island, Georgia, just after the Civil War. A man of remarkable and unforgettable kindness and strength, he shares his heart with two very different women--Ellen, who passionately adores him, and Anna, who comforts him in sorrow. They each surrender themselves to his dreams. Anson's story unfolds as a beautiful tale of honor when he rebuilds the war-torn Christ Church, Frederica, in memory of happy and lost love.
