Publisher's summary

A powerful story about love, courage, sacrifice, resilience, and hope, True Grace, set in 1924 during the Harlem Renaissance and Roaring Twenties, chronicles the journey of an immigrant, mixed-raced woman from the Congo, England, and Jamaica, fighting for her family's survival.

Inspired by real people and events, Grace must navigate the misogyny and racism of the courts, banks, child welfare system, and bad actors to hold her family together. Calling on her grit, determination, and grace, she must overcome harrowing circumstances. Listeners will find themselves hooked from the first riveting chapter and cheering for Grace each step of the way.

An Incredible Journey

This was my first experience with Karen E Osborne's work, and it was very emotional. The story was about Grace Herbert, an immigrant, mixed-raced woman who was fighting to survive and to keep her family together in the year 1924. Grace was an amazing character who faced many obstacles in achieving her dreams. The tale was thought provoking, and it engendered many emotions as the story unfolded. Debi Tinsley's narration was fine, and her performance enhanced the story's entertainment. I was given a free copy of the audiobook, and I have voluntarily posted this review.

The story of Grace was amazing!!!

I fell in love with Grace Herbert.
From the opening quote in chapter one, "The first time my husband died,.... The second time he died.." grabbed my attention.

I loved the story flow and imagery the words Karen E. Osborne conveyed in the story. I often felt like I was right in the room or on the very street in Harlem as she told the tale.

So glad Grace had an incredible network and community of people around her, providing her grace along her journey.
