Description

In antebellum Charleston, a Catholic priest grapples with doubt and his family's secret African ancestry. Joseph Lazare's life is turned upside down when he discovers the truth about his black hair and olive skin, which he had always believed came from a Spanish grandmother. As Joseph struggles to come to terms with his heritage, he finds himself drawn to Tessa Conley, a devout Irish immigrant who shares his passions for music and botany. But their love is forbidden, as Tessa has already married another man - a plantation owner who treats her more like property than a partner. Against the backdrop of revolution and social change, Joseph must decide whether to follow his heart or conform to the expectations of those around him. This is the first book in Elizabeth Bell's sweeping Lazare Family Saga, which spans five generations and explores themes of passion, prejudice, secrets, and the desperate choices that people make in times of chaos.
