People make mistakes. Whether due to bad judgement or faulty logic, we all falter in our quest for personal happiness. Some individuals spend a lifetime attempting to redeem themselves; some don’t care to try. A few succeed; it's impossible for some.

We remember the words of Alexander Pope: "To err is human; to forgive, divine.”

Absolution is an epic novel set in the early 1800's, when the Ohio Territory was first being settled. It's a story of courage, disappointments, love, and broken dreams. It's about the "coming of age" for young pioneers facing the perils of survival in an untamed wilderness. It recounts the fall of the righteous and their eventual absolution.

Much of this story is true – most of it is not. Names have been changed to protect family privacy.

Young Margaret Waters' innocent life was turned upside down when she met the mysterious Dr. Miles Deihl. He was a dark wild thing; exuding raw sensuality and emanating an inaudible primal groaning. He was not at all like her childhood beau; the down to earth Swede, Nathan Stillman. Life becomes a tangle of powerful emotions, full of unsuspected twists and turns.

As you delve into the lives of the characters, you might identify with some. You may even bond with one or two. You will cry with them, and you will laugh with them, and you will undoubtedly become angry at times. There's one thing to be sure of -- your own emotions will not remain neutral while involved in this tale.
