Book Description

Healing and helping are Thomas’ deepest passions. Still, exhilarating studies at medical school in 1871 are not as challenging as acquiring the necessary social graces to function in a society to which he is unaccustomed. Despite being the “City of Brotherly Love,” racial injustice and disparity between classes are rampant in post-Civil War Philadelphia. Trying to assimilate into this new world, Thomas feels conflicted and struggles to fit in. Debutante Emmaline Whitaker is willing to teach him the delicate dance to fitting in but ends up teaching him much more. By societal standards, Thomas has finally achieved it all: a lovely fiancé, a promising career, and the guarantee of a bright future, yet he has no peace. The din of the city has distracted Thomas, and he longs to again hear God’s voice. Thomas determines to champion another in a bold attempt to save himself from succumbing to the same malaise as those around him. The anguish of this life-altering choice breaks his heart. But will his decision and newfound knowledge be enough to save his dearest friend, and at what cost? For fans of Christian historical fiction comes a poignant story of love and sacrifice set in the City of Brotherly Love from award-winning and best-selling author Heidi Gray McGill. • Full-length Christian historical fiction • A standalone novel in the Discerning God’s Best series • Includes discussion questions for book clubs • Timeline: 1871 – 1877 • For fans of Misty M. Beller, Lacy Williams, and Linda Ford
