Extended description

Following a scandalous divorce, Alex MacLachlan, third son of a prominent New York banker, finds himself socially ostracized by family and friends. Heartsick, he wanders the world, until one day he comes ashore, thousands of miles from home, in the small rural town of Salem, Oregon. An alcoholic at age 26, Alex is befriended by the local doctor and his beautiful daughter Emily, who encourages him to believe that even a man with a checkered past can find forgiveness and a new life.

The author skillfully utilizes fascinating details from Salem's early history in 1913-14 in this tender love story to demonstrate the power of love to transform and heal lives.
