Description

Abandoned draws back the curtain on the romance of the days when railroads were new, when the country convulsed in war against itself and suffragettes left Victorian decorum aghast at their demands. Violet Fletcher Austin lost the love of her life when her husband abandoned her and her son. Will Fletcher, the ambitious son, feels the heartache of being deserted and is determined to be more than the father who left him. Addie Rose, Will's wife, believes the time has come for the world to hear the voices of women. Abandoned is a story of betrayal, false identities, vindictiveness, ambition, war, and social reform but above all - love.
