Watchers on the Hill

I read this whole series.. I suggest you start with the first book and go to the last. It follows on with the people. I love this and would recomend this for any one. I think Stephanie Grace Whitson is a really good author.

Charlotte, the formerly snooty daughter of the town doctor has been away, married a high army office, had a son and is now widowed. She feels trapped in the home of his obnoxious parents, far from the love of her little town and loving family and friends. She finds a way home, but 10 yr. old Will is incorrigible. Expected to perform as an officer's son, he rebels and ends up in the common school at which place he meets his best friend, 10 yr. old CJ, daughter of Laina whom we met in the previous book. Laina is expecting Caleb's first child and they have moved to a ranch, talking with them several of the old friends from book one. An unexpected tragedy threatens their marriage and their sanity. Will is the central focus, as is the change in Charlotte, his mother. This is another excellent portrayal of historical and spiritual significance, thanks Stephanie Whitson.
