Overview

A gritty, visceral Civil War novel written in Lester's stark prose tells the story of a world where one's soul is in an existential war against man's brutal nature. All hell has broken loose after John Brown's raid. Elmira Beaumont, a plantation mistress, worries after her only son, Noah, ends up under the command of their hated family rival Ambrose de Bellomonte-now an active Confederate general. Alone in the world, young Emma arrives at Beaumont plantation after losing her father during a failed escape. Meanwhile, Isaiah, once the educated companion of Noah, has been cast out of the mansion and condemned to the fields. He's plotting a bloodbath until a new girl piques his interest. 'House of Crimson Roses' is an epic family saga about the death and rebirth of the Beaumont family. Masters and slaves within the family struggle with love, loss, the opiate of vengeance, and the promise of redemption while the bloody thread that binds them is the upheaval of civil war.
