Description
After the dust of the Civil War settles, the North yearns for a return to normalcy, the South strives to rebuild, and the freedmen seek to be part of the new order. It's a time of reckoning, shattered norms, and reshaped ideals. Against this backdrop, the epic Queen of the West historical fiction trilogy concludes. German-born Max becomes a driving force behind Cincinnati's struggle to retain its preeminence as the Queen City. Formidable Annie fights for women's rights and is entangled in the national movements pitting women against Blacks. Freedman John embarks on a journey to the hostile South to find the mother he was torn from in his youth, and carpetbagger Aaron seeks fortune in the cotton fields of Mississippi. As the nation strives for unity, the lives of these four are intertwined amidst seismic societal shifts, political turmoil, and technological advancements. Queen's Moment in the Sun opens a window into the heart of America during the tumultuous era of Reconstruction, where personal ambitions clash with the people, places, and events that shaped the destiny of Cincinnati. Each experiences their moment in the sun, but in this riveting tale of resilience, passion, and transformation, the brilliance of that moment shines brighter and burns longer for some. Step into the past to witness a nation's defining era, where the struggle for identity, equality, and purpose converge on the streets of a resolute city. Queen's Moment in the Sun is a masterful finale that will leave you engaged and enlightened.
