‘Sweet Mercy’ is a rousing historical drama with strong undertones of romance, suspense and faith.
Forced into redundancy, Eve Marryat’s family is forced to move away from St. Paul, Minnesota. Thankfully family steps in to offer Eve’s dad a job and lodging at the Marryat Island Ballroom and Lodge. 1913 was a time of under the table deals and corporate corruption, so joining the family business seemed like a God send.
Moving back to her father’s home town in Ohio is a dream come true for Eve, as all she ever wanted was to escape from the ghetto’s and gangsters of St. Paul. But the naive seventeen year old soon discovers that her uncle’s lodge is a front for something far more sinister and dangerous. When Eve is faced with a dilemma, will she risk everything to protect her family?
This coming-of-age drama is a gripping read blending together mystery, suspense and a rich historical setting. Lovers of historical and mystery will find ‘Sweet Mercy’ a thrilling read.
Stunning coming-of-age drama set during the Great Depression and Prohibition
When Eve Marryat's father is laid off from the Ford Motor Company in 1931, he is forced to support his family by leaving St. Paul, Minnesota, and moving back to his Ohio roots. Eve's uncle Cyrus has invited the family to live and work at his Marryat Island Ballroom and Lodge.
Eve can't wait to leave St. Paul, a notorious haven for gangsters. At seventeen, she considers her family to be "good people," not lawbreakers like so many in her neighborhood. Thrilled to be moving to a "safe haven," Eve soon forms an unlikely friendship with a strange young man named Link, blissfully unaware that her uncle's lodge is anything but what it seems.
When the reality of her situation finally becomes clear, Eve is faced with a dilemma. Does she dare risk everything by exposing the man whose love and generosity is keeping her family from ruin? And when things turn dangerous, can she trust Link in spite of appearances?
