In 1814 Marie Dorion brings her surviving family to the Okanogan settlement, where fur-trade instability and the disappearance or failure of loved ones make ordinary security difficult to sustain. She has survived catastrophe, but grief leaves her suspicious of every blessing and reluctant to trust the permanence of affection.
The second Tender Ties novel follows Marie as friendship, service and renewed love challenge that fear. Christian grace becomes credible not as protection from further loss but as the freedom to receive good without assuming that suffering has made her unworthy of it.
