Resumen del Editor

In 1842, Catriona, unwilling to be left behind by husband Dougal McDonnell, disguises herself as a boy to work for the Hudson’s Bay Company. Within a few days of landing at York Factory on Hudson’s Bay, Cat is assigned to work at the trading post, but Dougal is ordered west to Fort Vancouver and the Pacific Northwest – abandoning Cat. Rugged terrain and thousands of miles separate them. How will Cat survive alone? Will she and Dougal be reunited? In Rivers of Stone, Cat undertakes a formidable journey during the fur trade era across Canada and the Oregon territory in her quest to find Dougal. Along the way, she befriends voyageurs, Cree, and artist Paul Kane, who travels on behalf of the Hudson’s Bay Company. Cat and Dougal were minor characters in STANDING STONES, Book 1, which introduced the McDonnell family as they struggled with the Clearances in Scotland. YEARS OF STONE, Book 2, tells the story of Mac McDonnell and his sweetheart, Diedre, after he was transported to prison in a land over the seas, Van Diemen’s Land, Australia. While each book can be read alone, this compelling series immerses the reader into what life was like 150 years ago, when families, often split apart, struggled to shape new lives with few resources. Challenged by fearsome nature and nearly overwhelming obstacles, they held true to their vision of a new life in a new land.
