During her visit to the area she encounters several local characters and finds romance, mystery, wealth, intrigue and answers to many questions. Readers will never forget Anna and the folks that enter her life.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Local historian and author, Pat Mestern, has written a masterpiece that cracks open a window to life in Fergus in the early 1900s. With a full cast of intriguing characters Anna has made the town come alive with rich, new meaning!" --Kelly Linton, Mayor, Centre Wellington (Elora/Fergus) and Warden, County of Wellington<br><br>"Pat, a master storyteller, takes the reader to a time when the most famous building in Fergus, the Poor House, was already well into its infamous and tragic legacy. Through Anna we experience the trauma such a place inflicted, and journey with her as she tries to free herself from the ghosts created therein. A can't-put-it-down read!" --Mary Lloyd, Author, <i>Julianna, Pirate's Treasure, My Sunshine</i> <br><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Pat Mestern</b> has always called the Upper Grand River Valley in southern Ontario home. The combination of its beautiful natural heritage and multi-cultural diversity--the Scots, Irish, English, German, Mennonite, and Amish settled this vibrant area--plays a major role in forming the characterizations and settings for her works of historical fiction that are primarily set in Canada. Traveling and writing provide her with endless ideas for scenarios, time periods, and characters for those works of fiction that are set "away." Pat Mattaini Mestern has authored twelve books, her favourite genre being historical fiction. She also writes travel, lifestyle, and local history columns for a variety of national and international publications.
