Library Binding, Large Print (January 2nd, 2019): $32.Kim and her incredible husband of twenty-five-plus years live in Montana and have two adult children.
A popular speaker and teacher, she's shared her theme of "Joy Through Trials" with more than half a million people across the country at more than 2,000 events. But when a woman naturalist comes to fill the open position and he must work with her, everything becomes complicated. Tracie and her family live in Montana.Kimberley Woodhouse is a multi-published author of fiction and nonfiction. She is the author of more than one hundred novels and the recipient of the 2011 ACFW Lifetime Achievement Award. Non-fans of Christian fiction will be bothered by the heavy religious content, but Peterson’s many admirers will love the book, and the cliffhanger ending will have them coming back for more.Tracie Peterson's love for history and research fuels the bestselling stories she writes. But I found the novel slow-paced, with a rather cheerless tone and a hoary old plot device as part of the denouement. The exotic, slightly post-Gold Rush Alaskan setting was interesting, as was the idea of a female Pinkerton agent. A crime victim herself, Helaina insists Jayce must go to Seattle to face justice. Leah can’t believe he is a criminal, and Jacob’s Biblical parables about showing mercy have no effect. There they are confronted by Helaina Beecham, a Pinkerton agent come to arrest Jayce, who is wanted for theft and murder. When Jayce is attacked and injured by dogs, Leah and Jacob must take him to Nome for medical treatment. Now Jayce reappears, to see Jacob about purchasing sled dogs, and Leah has confused feelings about him. Ten years ago she declared her love to Jayce Kincaid and was rejected. Leah Barringer lives with her brother, Jacob, in a remote part of the territory, running a trading post. Peterson begins her Alaskan Quest series with this volume, set in 1915.
