The Tapestry — MaryAnn Minatra

FROM TENNESSEE BATTLEFIELDS TO THE WHITE HOUSE ITSELF, THIS SWEEPING CIVIL WAR EPIC TRACES THE LIVES OF TWO BROTHERS -- LINKED BY ONLY A BROKEN LOCKET, THE PEOPLE WHO LOVED THEM, AND THE TRIUMPH OF FAITHFUL PRAYER

Ethan Alcoa could not ignore war with the South any longer. His family could do the praying. He was going to fight. Chosen as President Lincoln's personal aide and bodyguard, the young captain quickly finds himself drawn into the swirling intrigue of Washington politics. Then tragedy strikes, leaving the president dead and Ethan crippled. Broken and ashamed, Ethan must come to terms with his pride and his guilt, foes stronger than the Confederate army.

Follow Ethan and the woman he loves as strong cords of faith and hope are beautifully woven together in The Tapestry.
