A sweeping saga of frontier survival, shattering betrayal, and the enduring power of a woman’s healing touch.
When Caroline Quimby travels to the untamed Wisconsin wilderness in the 1850s, she expects to support her husband, Reverend Adam Quimby, in his new circuit-riding ministry. Instead, she is thrust into a brutal struggle for survival. After enduring a harrowing woodland childbirth, Caroline discovers her newborn daughter has a paralyzed arm. Adam’s religious fervor twists into dark paranoia; convinced the child is a mark of sin, he abandons his family and ruthlessly gives the baby away to a horrific asylum.
Determined to save her daughter and forge her own destiny, Caroline rescues the child and escapes to Chicago. Aided by Kemink, her fiercely loyal Menominee friend, Caroline transforms her profound grief into a groundbreaking school for disabled and neglected children.
As the nation fractures under the bloody weight of the Civil War, Caroline finds her heart torn between the ghosts of her past and a budding romance with Baird LeSeure—a cynical, wealthy Southern atheist fighting for the Union Army.
Spanning decades and culminating in the terrifying, historic Great Peshtigo Fire of 1871, Tomorrow Is a River tests the limits of faith and forgiveness. As walls of flame threaten to consume everything she has fought to build, Caroline must rely on her resilient spirit to protect her found family from the ashes.
