In the sequel to Olivia's Favorites the outstanding graduates of 1898 pursue their careers in Moss Grove and abroad in Paris, France where sucess doesn't come easily for the movie-makers. However, Mayfred is blossoming into an accomplished actor. Although Bartholomew (Beebee) Brantley Thomas finds an angel, Cosmos Deary, to finance their productions, his presence isn't welcomed by everyone. The group disbands and four return to Pennsylvania on the Titanic. Their world is further upset by World War I and the flu pandemic, and personal tragedies change them, as well as their home town. Olivia remains a steadying influence upon her favorite students, but her main occupation is caring for her family and helping her husband Gustav to become an important man. His feistiness rears up when the departing railroad threatens isolation of the city. It's a fight Gustav relishes, as he stays true to his convictions with help from Ardith, the journalist, who has her own struggle to hide her child from anyone who will take him from her. Truly, Moss Grove, affected by troubled times, takes on a different nature, but to this group of friends it remains their anchor.
