"Strange Saint"
Beahrs brings his background in archaeology and anthropology to this novel of 17th century life and mores--as brilliantly written as it is rich in historical detail. Based in part on actual accounts of the old Plymouth Colony and the people later known as the Pilgrims, Beahrs plunges the reader into a mesmerizing and dangerous world. Strange Saint is a vivid, haunting work--absolutely unforgettable.
