1857. Following the call of the Mormon faith, Tamar Loader weathers a brutal pilgrimage from England to Utah, where Tamar is united with her destined husband, Thomas Ricks. But Thomas is already wedded to one woman and betrothed to still another. When the US Army's invasion brings the rebellious Mormon community to heel, Tamar, Jane, and Tabitha are forced to retreat into the hostile desert wilderness with little in common but the same man. What they discover, as one, is redemption, a new definition of family, and a bond stronger than matrimony that is tested like never before.
