Representaion Supposing Books Lake in the Clouds (Wilderness #3)
Lake in the CloudsIn her extraordinary novels Into the Wilderness and Dawn on a Distant Shore, award-winning author Sara Donati deftly captured the vast, untamed wilds of late-eighteenth-century New York and the trials and triumphs of the spirited Bonner family. Now she takes on a new chapter in the life of Elizabeth and Nathaniel Bonner--as their brave and beautiful oldest daughter comes of age with a challenge that will change her forever. . . .
It is the spring of 1802 and the village of Paradise is still reeling from the typhoid epidemic of the previous summer. But despite a devastating personal loss, the Bonners persevere, with Hannah, Nathaniel's half-Indian daughter, working as a doctor in training. A gifted healer, this striking young woman of two worlds finds herself in peril when a dangerously ill runaway slave is discovered near the family home and Hannah insists on nursing the outlaw. Her determination places both her family and her heart in jeopardy, for a bounty hunter is afoot--and he is none other than Hannah's childhood friend and first love. So begins a journey that will test the strength of the Bonners' love for one another--and bring Hannah to face the decision she has always dreaded: will she make a life for herself in a white world, or among her mother's people?

I thoroughly enjoyed Donati's third book in the series. So much happens in this novel that this reader did not want to put the book down. It is a definite page turner. Enjoy.Lake in the CloudsI enjoyed this book almost as much as the first two, though the first was by far my favorite. The relationships and struggles are so well written about. It was hard to see Hannah move on though. Im looking forward to the next book!
I can't stop reading these books, fascinating family and history.
This is the third in this book series, and I really loved it. I so enjoyed seeing the characters mature and grow. I was a little put off by the 5-6 years that elapsed between books, but i got over it pretty rapidly. There was plenty of adventure and a good deal of accurate history involving New York and Canada, as well as the status of modern medicine in 1802. We need to be reminded of the horrible status of public health and welfare during that time. We tend to be horrified by our current
