No Refuge in Canaan (Promised Land series)

By Catherine Connally

Book Overview

No Refuge in Canaan is the saga of the Sullivans, a family of Irish immigrants to Canaan, Tennessee---set before and during the Civil War. The Sullivans are not slaveholders but are nevertheless swept up into the conflict between North and South, with brothers in the family on opposite sides.
Their story is narrated by the youngest daughter, Lily. Lily is adopted into the family as a baby under mysterious circumstances, and after her arrival the family begins to experience a long series of misfortunes. Amid those family troubles, Lily comes of age, meets the love of her life when she least expects to, and fights not only to survive in the war-ravaged South, but to overcome the dark legacy of her birth.

An old-fashioned historical novel with plenty of romance and touches of fantasy, mystery, and adventure, No Refuge in Canaan explores the age-old question of fate vs. chance. Are all things simply meant to be? Or not?
