Until That Distant Day (Paperback)

Colette and her brother Pascoe are two sides of the same coin, dependent upon one another in the tumultuous world of the new Republic. Together they labor with other leaders of the sans-culottes to ensure freedom for all the downtrodden men and women of France. But then the popular uprisings turn bloody and the rhetoric proves false. Suddenly, Colette finds herself at odds with Pascoe and struggling to unite her fractured family against the lure of violence. Charged with protecting an innocent young woman and desperately afraid of losing one of her beloved brothers, Colette doesn't know where to turn or whom to trust as the bloodshed creeps ever closer to home. Until that distant day when peace returns to France, can she find the strength to defend her loved ones . . . even from one another?
