Synopsis: An Irish mother faces her destiny in California as the acclaimed trilogy comes to an end—&“a vibrant picture of American history in the mid-19th century&” (Historical Novel Society). With her two children, Gracelin O&’Malley travels to post–Gold Rush San Francisco to meet the sea captain who has proposed marriage to her. But when she arrives, he is nowhere to be found. Destitute in a city filled with gangs, disillusioned soldiers, and professional gamblers, Grace takes a position as a cook for one of the city&’s most prominent doctors—only to become caught up in a tangled web of blackmail and betrayal. Determined to make a secure life for her children and find her brother, Sean, Gracelin sets in motion a series of events that change the future of everyone around her, never dreaming that the man she thought she&’d lost forever is still alive and determined to find his way back to her. Dickensian in scope, with a full cast of riveting characters, Ann Moore&’s &’Til Morning Light is the stunning conclusion to the enthralling story of Gracelin O&’Malley, a heroine for the ages.
