Follow a family saga of three generations of joy, headache, struggle, and victory in Virginia post-Civil War. Charles LeNoir knew he would join the whispering voices in Briarwoods' serene cemetery; he hoped for it. Briarwood has been his home for many years-even after the War, it stood proud and in one piece, ready to welcome him with open arms yet again. But Briarwood served as more than just a residence for Charles. It is the enduring legacy of the LeNoir family and a place of comfort the extended family claims as their most prized legacy. Without children, Briarwood is set to pass to someone else-and the family will never let go of a piece of themselves they cherish so dearly.
