Women’s voices so often get lost in history, and it is one of the absolute joys of historical fiction when a talented writer discovers and publishes a lost voice. Julia Clark, the narrator of “West of Santillane”, is just such a woman, and in the hands of award-winning author Brook Allen, Julia’s story emerges from history to secure her role in the exploration of the American West.
“Ms Allen has discovered the unknown story of a woman on America’s raw frontier and tells it with gut-wrenching emotion. Engrossing and provocative. Highly recommend.”
