- For 8 years Ketty Petrie has lived in the Moravian village of Salem North Carolina, but on a night in early spring of 1780 as she is readying up the tavern after its closing a stranger knocks on the door and asks entrance and a bed for the night. This stranger is her eldest brother Anson who left home when Ketty was two. Anson is leaving the Wetauga settlements for Kentucky, and has just thought of his long lost family. Ketty embarks on this adventure, filled with aprehention, as she has been gently raised by the Moravians, and this raising goes totally against anything Anson his family and the rest of the company believe. In the end though after many trials, and triamphs, Ketty finds romance, and good will. among these people she has learned to call community and family.
