The Bent Tree Path, Book One: A Secret Trail of Tears

Historical fiction by Joan T. Warren

From the Appalachian Mountains to the rural outskirts of Washington, D.C., several generations of Cherokee and Scots-Irish women live in secrecy and shame under a system that not only allows but rewards manipulation and abuse. Each, in her own way, bears the cost of truth as they blaze a trail for freedom, wholeness and dignity for future generations.
