American Saga

Lauraine Snelling introduces the reader to Rune and Signe Carlson in book one, "The Promise of Dawn," of the series Under Northern Skies. Rune's uncle Einar Strand lives in American and sends a letter to the family in Norway asking for help. Rune and his wife decide to accept the chance of going to American, helping a family member, and starting a new life for them and their family of three boys and unborn child with land Uncle Einar promises as compensation once their passage to America is paid off. What they don't expect is the harshness and demanding nature of Uncle Einar and Aunt Gerd or how deplorable the living conditions are in the house. Using kindness and persistence, Signe begins to chip away at Gerd's demeanor. But the cost to Rune and Signe maybe more than they bargained for in Minnesota. I received this complementary copy from Bethany House to review and give my honest opinion.
