Where the Compass Points (en Inglés) - Amy C Crooks

A father’s absence shaped him. A lifetime’s choices will define him.

Book Two of The Woolseys continues the historical family saga begun in His Greatest Regret. That first book told the story of Richard Woolsey-a man chasing wealth and opportunity across the frontier, leaving his three-year-old son, William, behind.

This is William’s story.

From the moment he leaves home at ten, the road west is both his salvation and his crucible. In the dust of cattle drives, the silence of campfires, and the quiet trust of a horse’s gaze, he learns strength. In Lillie Graham’s laughter, he discovers a love strong enough to plant roots. Together, they raise a family through years of trial and triumph, each day a promise to do what Richard never did: stay.

But the past does not vanish.

When William’s sister appears, carrying their father’s compass and a truth sharp enough to reopen old wounds, he must confront the ghost of a man who shaped his life from afar-and decide if forgiveness is the key to his own legacy.

Where the Compass Points is a lyrical, heart-aching saga of the American frontier, perfect for readers of These Is My Words and Cold Mountain who believe love and loyalty are the truest north.
