Angels unaware

It was 1895, and time for a change, thought Rebecca Rice. For thirteen years, Rebecca had suffocated under the social restraints of widowhood. She couldn't remember a time in her life when she hadn't done exactly what was expected of her. Until now. Armed with a knowledge of nursing and faith healing that she had learned from a visiting missionary group, Rebecca headed for the hill country of southeastern Oklahoma, Indian Territory, to share her new vocation. But the clannish folk of the hill country, reared and groomed in suspicion and superstition, resent Rebecca's presence in their midst. Faced with such human conflicts as hate and ignorance, Rebecca must also struggle with tornados and floods. But her greatest adversary is the circuit-riding preacher, Zake Daniels, who fears Rebecca's teachings will threaten his hold on his flock.

  • "It was 1895 and time for a change, or so Rebecca thought. For thirteen years Rebecca Rice had suffocated under the social restraints of widowhood, soaking up the leftovers of other people's lives like a sponge. She can't remember a time in her life when she didn't do exactly what was expected of her until now. Armed with a knowledge of nursing and faith healing that she learned from a visiting missionary group, she heads for the hill country of southeastern Oklahoma, Indian Territory, to share her new vocation. The clannish folk of the hill country, reared and groomed in suspicion and superstition, resent Rebecca's presence in their midst. Rebecca, faced with such human conflicts as hate, distrust, jealousy, ignorance, murder, abortion, and child abuse, must also struggle with the destructive forces of nature--tornado, flood, and snowstorms. But her greatest adversary is the circuit-riding preacher, Zake Daniels, who fears Rebecca's teachings will threaten his hold on his flock."@en
