In "The Secret Path of Destiny," a young, disabled,
German-American girl, named Isolde, and her destitute mother reach
out for a lifeline being offered by a widower in the German town of
Fredericksburg, Texas. The year is 1865, and the two travel from
New York City through the aftermath of the Civil War. But another
war is brewing, this time with Native Americans. And Isolde and her
mother are heading right into the heart of Comancheria, the
homeland of the Comanche.
It is not the Comanche Isolde fears, but her mother's new
employer, who becomes her stepfather. Isolde realizes he is a
cunning man who is not who he pretends to be. As the situation
worsens, Isolde is forced to make a life-changing decision to
escape; desperate, she seeks refuge with a Comanche Indian, who
befriends her at first, but later joins a warring band of Comanche.
Her malevolent stepfather pursues her across Texas, turning her
life upside down. In the midst of her troubles, Isolde's faith
sustains her, and she unexpectedly finds the love that has always
eluded her. Eventually, Isolde accepts the difficult circumstances
of her life and realizes that a person's destiny is often hidden
from view because the path is sometimes rocky.
"Just about anyone can write a book, but only a good writer can
write a good book. M. B. Tosi is a very good writer, and her books
are truly worth reading."
-Jim Langford, author of "The Spirit of Notre Dame and Quotable
Notre Dame"
