The Valley by
Helen Bryan is book one of The Valley Trilogy. After the death of her father,
Sophia Grafton faces a choice: live in poverty in England or move to the
colonies where her father has a tobacco plantation. She chooses to take her
chances with the plantation. Only once she get there, she realizes the
plantation and life in the colonies isn’t at all how it was convened to her.
She begins to carve out a living with a ragtag group of freed slaves, traders
and other who don’t fit elsewhere. Together they fight Indian attacks, disease,
and the dread slave snatchers. Will Sophia be able to make her plantation a
success? Will she survive the wild wilderness of the Americas?
The Valley is an
interesting story of a beautiful valley in Virginia. It is filled with wonderful
characters, beautiful scenery amd action of life on a homestead. The last few
chapters were confusing as to how they fit into the story. My conclusion is
that the end of the book will connect with book 2 of this trilogy. If you enjoy
historical fiction, you will enjoy The
Valley. I recommend this book as beautiful story of the people who lived
here in the beginnings of our country.
The Valley is available on Amazon.com
In paperback, on the
Kindle and Audible
