The Search for Joyful: In this long-awaited sequel to the “unforgettable” (Boston Herald) bestseller Mrs. Mike, Benedict and Nancy Freedman paint a rich, evocative portrait of the World War II era – as seen through the eyes of a young Cree woman who is out on her own for the very first time....

When her dear friend Oh-Be-Joyful died in a flu epidemic, Mrs. Mike Flannigan opened her home-and heart-to her orphaned child, Kathy Forquet. Over the years, young Kathy delighted in the Flannigans' love-and suffered the pain of her schoolmates' prejudice. And as the terrors of World War II drew ever closer to home, Kathy left her small Canadian town to join the war effort-and enrolled at a nursing school in Montreal.

This bustling, beautiful city is everything Kathy ever hoped for. Her classes are stressful but stimulating, her new friends are caring and kind. And her life fills with drama and excitement when she meets two very different men-a Native American who helps her understand her lost heritage, and a wounded Austrian soldier who shares fascinating stories of his exotic, embattled homeland.
