From one dangerous escape to another, Nina’s life is fraught with anxiety. Almost snarled by the Russian revolution, she is brought to America as a maid in a wealthy American mansion. Her new master tries seducing her with tragic consequences. She is accused of murder. Slipping away on a late night train, she finds refuge in a Bordello in the rough coal mining area of Southern Illinois only to be sold by the Madame for a thousand dollars. A labor boss with ulterior motives convinces her of his sincerity, but she must again escape his seduction. A minister hides Nina on a poor man’s farm near the Mississippi River. Nina’s integrity will not bend for the owner’s passion. When a huge flood overflows the farm, the minister again helps her escape. Nina becomes a school teacher in a very poor school, but her students love her. A monstrous tornado destroys the building and many of her little ones. It is the saddest funeral ever in the little town. Yet Nina finds love and happiness in a way she never could have expected. Publisher’s website: http: //sbpra.com/DrThomasEBerry/
