Lost Saints by Elizabeth Bell

Lost Saints by Elizabeth Bell

From the walled gardens of Charleston to the vast prairies of the American West, the saga of the Lazare family continues.

Charleston, South Carolina, 1840s. Unable to marry, Catholic priest Joseph Lazare and his soulmate Tessa Stratford risk a dangerous love affair, betting their lives on the ignorance of her husband and betting their souls on the forgiveness of God.

Young David Lazare, Joseph's orphaned nephew and Tessa's ward, struggles to make a life in Charleston. But David is haunted by secrets he's determined to keep, above all a terrible choice he made as a ten-year-old boy on the Oregon Trail.

None of them realizes that two thousand miles away, a lost Lazare has found a new family in the rapidly changing American West. He wants only to be Cheyenne, but as white emigrants and soldiers threaten the people he loves, his blond hair becomes a question he must answer--or die trying.

Will the truth unite the Lazares--or destroy them?

For fans of THE THORN BIRDS and Sara Donati, LOST SAINTS is the second book in the sweeping Lazare Family Saga that transports readers from the West Indies to the Wild West, from Charleston, Paris, and Rome into the depths of the human heart. The series begins with Book 1, NECESARY SINS.

Bell, Elizabeth: - Elizabeth Bell has been writing stories since the second grade. At the age of fourteen, she chose a pen name and vowed to become a published author. That same year, she began the Lazare Family Saga. It took her a couple decades to get it right. New generations kept demanding attention, and the saga became four epic historical novels. After earning her MFA in Creative Writing at George Mason University, Elizabeth realized she would have to return her two hundred library books. Instead, she cleverly found a job in the university library. She works there to this day. Elizabeth was a Finalist for the James Jones First Novel Fellowship and won Second Place in the Maggie Awards for Excellence. The opening pages of Necessary Sins were published in the inaugural issue of the literary journal Embark. Elizabeth loves chatting with fellow readers, writers, and history buffs.
