Set in the 1830s, Rachel Dunne flees her home country of
Ireland after a child in her care, dies and Rachel stands trial for
murder. Even though acquitted, the
majority of their town shuns her family, so Rachel moves to London seeking work
through a cousin. The death of the child, the trial, and the move take their
toll on Rachel’s faith in herself and the Lord. Her employer, also a physician,
stumbled from his faith years ago when his wife died. When a cholera epidemic
hits London, they each hit bottom, turning to the Lord for the ultimate support.
This gentle love story provides the reader a time of
introspection as the characters seek to find God’s mercy in their lives. The
characters have depth, and Herriman describes the scene so well that the reader
easily transports to another time. Very enjoyable read, recommended for readers
looking for a deep love story with the added depth of Biblical foundations.
