I am reviewing a copy of Unveiled Smoke through Bethany House Publishers and Netgalley:
This book takes us to 1870's Chicago where Meg and Sylvia Townsend manage the family bookshop and care for their Father Stephen a former Prisoner of War of the Civil War, who is still suffering from in mind and spirit from his time as a POW. But when the great fire sweeps through Chicago they will face a greater loss than just their store.
After the sisters are separated from their Father and make a harrowing escape from the fire and flames that went after everything in it's path with the help of Chicago Tribune reporter Nate Pierce. After the smoke cleared away, they reunite with Stephen only to later find out that their family friend was murdered the night of the fire. What is even more shocking is that their Father is accused of the crime and is committed to the Cook County Insane Asylum where he is treating appallingly before even being given a fair trial
Despite being injured, homeless, and unemployed Meg must try to gather the pieces of hers and her sisters life, as well as do everything she could as well as prove her father's innocence before the asylum truly drives him mad.
I give Unveiled Smoke five out of five stars!
Happy Reading!
