Daniella's husband, William, a surgeon, has joined the Union army and left the family in Independence, Missouri.  After coming home on leave, he sends a letter, announcing to Daniella that he wants a divorce, he has a mistress and she's expecting a child.  Some time later, he comes home, intent upon taking their sons to Baltimore to live with him and his mistress.  Really, this is the story of the personal battle between them.  The Civil War is the backdrop, but not terribly important to the story.  Well written and engaging, but not terribly outstanding. That said, I would read this author again.
