Summary

Left suddenly penniless, the Honorable Sophia Grafton, a viscount's orphaned daughter, sails to the New World to claim the only property left to her name: a tobacco plantation in the remote wilds of colonial Virginia. Enlisting the reluctant assistance of a handsome young French spy - at gunpoint - she gathers an unlikely group of escaped slaves and indentured servants, each seeking their own safe haven in the untamed New World.

What follows will test her courage and that of her companions as they struggle to survive a journey deep into a hostile wilderness and eventually forge a community of homesteads and deep bonds that will unite them for generations.

The first installment in an epic historical trilogy by Helen Bryan, the bestselling author of War Brides and The Sisterhood, The Valley is a sweeping, unforgettable tale of hardship, tenacity, love, and heartache.

Disappointed

This book made a promising start, but then became more and more disappointing as it went on. It jumped years, introducing groups of new characters as if the reader had already become acquainted with them. I kept thinking that I’d missed a chapter, but no, the writer had just thrown a few new characters in! It spoiled the flow and the credibility of the story. Even the main character’s death felt like an afterthought. This all made it a laborious read from around the 1/2 way point.
