The Angel of Goliad: A Story of the Texas Revolution | Jean M Roberts
1 post
Imaginary friends are not real-or are they? A freak accident, a mysterious portrait, and an imaginary friendship take Magda O'Toole on a journey of self-discovery. Her search for answers leads her to Toluca, Mexico, where she meets a handsome Professor, Miguel Villatoro, and encounters the ghostly apparition of a woman long dead. Her desire to reconnect with a childhood friend pulls Magda into the past-it's 1836 and the Texas Revolution gathers momentum. Trapped and unable to return home, she travels with the Mexican Army deep into enemy territory, witnessing the events of the war. With only a tenuous hold on her old life, Magda must find a way to return to Miguel and her own time. As she struggles to survive, Magda learns the true meaning of friendship, love and courage.
