My Mother’s Daughter by Rebecca Thaddeus was released on January 1, 2019. It can be purchased on Amazon.
My Mother’s Daughter is a fast-paced, page-turning historical fiction about a mother’s daughters, set in an era of southern plantations and slavery.
—Nancy King, author of Opening Gates and other novels at www.nancykingstories.com
From slavery through abolition and women’s suffrage, Thaddeus’ sweeping story of four generations of mothers and daughters carries the reader away, down the Mississippi River on a keelboat, beneath the tunneling branches of the Natchez Trace, into the shanties and mansions of the old South, into a bygone time that both unsettles and delights.
—Elaine McCullough, Professor Emerita of English, Ferris State University
My Mother’s Daughter follows Eugenia and her family through more than a century of changes in the American South. From Eugenia’s trip from Philadelphia to rural Natchez, to the stories of her children, the plot’s well-drawn characters and experiences of slavery and its aftermath are compelling.
—Maryanne Heidemann, Co-founder (1981-present) of the No-Name Book Club

The Rescurer’s Path is set in Nixon-era Washington DC. Malca Bernovski is riding her horse off trail and discovers the wounded antiwar leader Gavin Hareen, prime suspect in the lethal bombing of an army truck. A budding love between the sheltered Malca, daughter of a Holocaust survivor, and the anguished, half-Syrian fugitive becomes a desperate struggle against injustice. From the White House to the Rockies, from the Warsaw Ghetto to the post-9/11 search of the lovers’ child for her origins, this tale spans generations to delve urgent, timeless questions.
