Acerca de esta escucha
For Barbara Coomb, what should have been sweet 16 becomes the bitterest time of her short life. How could she ever have known the tragedy that was about to strike with such unforgiving force?
Meeting the farmhand Lawrence Trent, a man robbed of his childhood by the misdeeds of a renegade father, seemed at first a doorway to happiness. Instead, it was one leading to desperation and deprivations that overshadowed even the brightness of their love for one another.
What strength will be required to survive the obstacles set along the course of their lives? What gifts from heaven can steer them to safety? Can the beautiful Barbara Coomb finally lay to rest the ghosts that taunt her present and haunt her future?
Will Lawrence break free from the chains that not only held his childhood, but now hold his heart?
In this Victorian historical romance story, author Rosie Swan carries listeners through a lifetime saga of a child who became a woman worthy of the deepest love and admiration a man could give.

International award-winning author Jennifer Nansubuga Makumbi’s novel is a sweeping and powerful portrait of a young girl and her family: who they are, what history has taken from them, and - most importantly - how they find their way back to each other. In her thirteenth year, Kirabo confronts a piercing question that has haunted her childhood: who is my mother? Kirabo has been raised by women in the small Ugandan village of Nattetta - her grandmother, her best friend, and her many aunts - but the absence of her mother follows her like a shadow.
