As Maggie returns to the place where she first found her purpose, she feels a rush of excitement. This city is on the brink of change, and I'm determined to make a difference to those who need it most...
San Francisco, 1904: For ten years, Maggie and her husband, Brendan, have lived together happily with their adopted daughter, their only cause for pain a longing for a baby of their own. But when Brendan's success means they can move to a more prestigious neighborhood, she feels utterly lost. With her newfound wealth, can Maggie find a way to stay true to her roots?
When Maggie unexpectedly runs into an old friend, Jenny, whose life she saved over a decade ago in this very city, she is delighted when she suggests they open a free clinic for the poorest in need of medical care. At last, Maggie feels she has a true sense of purpose.
But when Maggie tells Brendan her plans, she is heartbroken by his reaction. He wants her to enjoy their new status, rather than return to the hardships that defined their first years together. Devastated that their values are now so different, can they find their way back to one another and the life they once dreamed of?
In the midst of their own earth-shattering uncertainties, disaster strikes the city. When a huge earthquake reduces everything to dust, can Maggie find those she loves amid the chaos? And if her worst fears come true, and Brendan doesn't appear from the wreckage, will she have the strength to see another dawn?
The fourth book in the Maggie O'Halloran series is a heartbreaking, unputdownable story about one woman's determination to fight for what is right, no matter what. Perfect for fans of Kristin Hannah, Kristin Harmel and Jean Grainger.
