Still Life - Then, Now and Beyond: Book 3 of The Train Trilogy

By Janet R. Elder

The final book of the Train Trilogy, Still Life chronicles the coming-of-age stories of the sons and daughters of two orphan train riders: lifelong friends Danny O'Brien, who is Irish, and Johanna Buehler Wernicke, who is German. The exciting and surprising tale unfolds in Texas and New York. It spans the turbulent years between 1914, when Europe becomes engulfed in war, and 1919, when World War I formally ended. Emotionally moving and fast-paced, Still Life recounts the lives of the latest generation of the O'Brien and Wernicke clans. In April 1917, the U.S. officially enters "the war to end all wars." The draft is instituted. Anti-German sentiment is rampant. Everything changes for both families. Relationships are altered, some permanently. Still Life brings to a close the generational tale of two intertwined families and those whom they love. The historical fiction saga, the Train Trilogy, consists of Placed Out: Children of the Train , The Ring: Friendship, Loyalty, and Love , and Still Life: Then, Now, and Beyond.
