   For Maggie Smith, the search for ancestors can be both frustrating and fulfilling. Beyond records of birth and death, Maggie chronicles souls. With each discovery, she is drawn, soul-deep, into another time.
  Mary Hutton, a seventeen year-old bride-to-be, looks forward to escaping an over-bearing father and making a home with the man she loves.
   But prejudice and intrigue intervene. Mary is forced to battle tragedy, treachery, and murder to forge her place on the 18th century frontier.
