There’s a brand new page-turner from Carol Sheldon! Following up her recent historical fiction novel Mother Lode, Driven to Rage is also set in the early 1900s in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula.   This new novel focuses on a labor struggle between copper miners and mine owners that couldn’t care less about the lives or safety of their employees.  The story follows a family divided by the issue and contains love, betrayal, and murder.  If this sounds as interesting to you as it does to us, you should definitely come and see the author, Carol Sheldon at this book party.

“Award-winning author Carol Sheldon’s historical novel Driven to Rage explodes with tension. You’ll recognize characters in this copper mining town, including Sheriff Earl Foster from the riveting Mother Lode. How we suffer, struggling with lust, loyalty and tolerance. Driven to Rage is powerfully moving; Sheldon is a master storyteller of relationships. Reminiscent of Gone With the Wind and Grapes of Wrath.”
