  A TIME TO HEAL
  In the beginning, there's White Bird, daughter of a Pequot healer, forced to flee to the banks of the Connecticut River after the massacre of her tribe. There, White Bird instructs her daughter, Annis, in the art and power of healing, a gift that Annis then passes down to Morgan Wellburn, her child by a white man. Following her own destiny, Morgan is led to Dr. Grace Chapman--one of the few female physicians in the country--and later to bustling Brooklyn at the turn of the century, where her skills as a midwife and champion of the poor will lead her to her ultimate dream. . . .
  Through generations of love and loss, heartache and passion, Morgan's own daughter, granddaughter, and great-granddaughter will be challenged and changed by their remarkable, inherited gift in this unforgettable novel of women who dare to fight for their right to heal--and for their hearts. . . .
