Rich in American history, The Roswell Legacy is set against the backdrop of Grover Cleveland’s Washington, a capitol fraught with politics and greed, where the merest whisper of scandal can ruin a career.

The Civil War has been over for 25 years, and Allison Forsyth, from The Roswell Women, has made a new life for herself. Believing that her former husband, Coin Forsyth, has been killed in the war, she has remarried and borne a son. Only when the son introduces his lovely young fiancée, Ginna, to his mother, does Allison discover that Coin has survived, and that Ginna is none other than Coin’s daughter by a second marriage.

Two families, two generations of Roswell women are forced to face a tragedy from the past—and a treacherous secret that ultimately becomes The Roswell Legacy.
