The Daughter of Shiloh
In 1902, Tuskegee student Lealie attends a gathering at Birmingham's Shiloh Baptist Church only to be caught in the deadly stampede that follows a moment of panic. Her injuries delay her education and force her to reconsider plans she had assumed were secure. Alongside Milton, she becomes involved in questions surrounding missing church funds and a possible murder, drawing them into a mystery at a time when the Black community is already carrying profound grief. This historical romance combines a real American tragedy with faith, investigation, and two young people trying to build a future amid loss and uncertainty.
