Road's End is an historical novel set in the deep South between 1900 and WWII. It is the family saga of three generations of women ruled by passion. Helen Fitzgerald has a chance encounter with a dark and exciting man on a hot August night in 1898. He has come to Charleston in search of guns and money for the Fenian cause. When he sails back to Ireland with his pockets filled with her father's gold, Helen is left with an unborn child. She accepts a marriage proposal from a quiet, gentle man who has loved her from afar but she is unable to accept his love and life in rural Alabama. Her husband's inability to win her love and his jealousy over the love she has for her child changes him. Their life together shapes their daughter, Anna. She sees what her mother's indifference does to her father, how this unrequited love twists him into something dark and unkind. As she grows into a young woman, Anna, in her turn, is torn between the good man who loves her and the stranger in their midst who tempts her with the unknown. While her choices are different from her mother, they are nonetheless as painful to those who love her. It is the happy occasion of Anna's daughter's wedding that brings all the secrets of the Carroll women to the surface. As a strange, wealthy, and exciting man enters Rose's life, will she follow in the footsteps of her mother and grandmother? Will her future be one of heartache and loss? Road's End is a story of love, betrayal, and dark secrets.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Rebecca Barrett writes historical fiction, cozy mysteries, post-apocalyptic fiction (writing as Campbell O’Neal), children’s stories, and short stories of life in the South. An avid reader all her life and a product of “front porch” socializing, she became a story-teller at an early age.

Currently Rebecca is writing a detective series set in the deep South of the sixties featuring Hugo August, a Vietnam veteran, as her protagonist. The first book, The Rat Catcher, is available in paperback and ebook format. The second book in the series, She Had To Die, is taking shape as our intrepid author rocks out to the great music of the sixties and delves into the good vibes, high times, and social unrest of that era.

Her cozy mysteries feature Trouble, that handsome, sleek, black cat detective, In Trouble in Paradise, the game is afoot in Key West, Florida and there's a dead body in the Toucan Suite of the Paradise B&B. This is Rebecca Barrett's second book in this series written by multiple authors (The Mad Catters) who follow the antics of super-sleuth Trouble as he lands in first one crime scene then another. Of course, the humans help a little. These mysteries are fun and light hearted and just perfect for a beach read or a rainy day.

Star-Crossed Lovers

Helen Fitzgerald finds out too late that her surrender to an overwhelming love for an exciting stranger is no more than a moment of lust for him. When her daughter walks in her footsteps, memories of past indiscretions fill their lives with angst, bitterness, and hatred. Finally, Helen’s granddaughter seems destined to follow the same path.

Road’s End is a tale of star-crossed lovers in the Deep South: Tracing the lives of three generations of women from 1900 to WWII and the men who love them and accept the burden of raising another man’s child. Can any of them find a way to happiness?

Love the book.

I love novels that let me ‘live in the story’. Road’s End made me feel as if I were ‘walking with’ these characters who lived and loved so passionately. That is the beautiful gift of a book well-written.

I enjoyed every page and did not want it to end. It would make a great movie. What happen to Rose; which one did she marry?
I hope Rebecca with continue the story for us.
