This story concludes the drama that starts out with Lady Charlotte and Olivia. Is Olivia going to be able to keep her job as assistant chef at the Pullman hotel? Are the Pullman workers going to be successful in their strike? Is Matthew the newspaper reporter out to expose Charlotte? Is Charlotte's reunion with her son successful? This is the book of answers to all the loose ends in books one and two.

I grew attached to the people of Pullman and hated to see this story end. It is a strong testimony to the power of prayer as Fred's friend loses the use of his hand and struggles to find gainful employment, which is one example of many. I especially liked how the answer to whether you should place conditions on marriage is resolved. This story was light, historic, gripping and definitely to be shared! (
