When the Donovan family arrives in San Francisco--after doing missionary work in Hawaii for 15 years--the children's enthusiasm is tempered by the real reason for their furlogh--mother has tuberculosis. After she dies, father must make the journey back to Hawaii, and daughter Kaitlin is left to care for the others. First in a new series set in California in the 1870s.
