Following up with Wynn and Elizabeth from the previous books, we meet their children (Henry and Christine) that they rescued from bad circumstances and adopted. Henry is a Mountie like his father Wynn. Christine has completed a secretarial course and is looking for her place in the world. The world they face is a different place from when their parents were young. But like their parents, the trials they are faced with prove their faith in the end.
I loved the continuation books. I had always wondered what had happened to them, even if they are fictional. What Henry and Christine face bring us to a more modern world than many of her other books. This is a wonderful ending to the story that started a generation before. I think that girls would start enjoying and understanding this book around middle school. It does discuss what Canada was like during WWII (briefly) but it doesn’t describe the actual war.
