The legend of King Arthur is embedded in British and American culture.

Lake of the Cedars
Rebecca Smally knows that she has a complex family history. In some ways, it’s typical of the American melting pot, with ancestors who came from England and Germany at the turn of the century, looking for new opportunities and a different life. But in other ways, they are anything but typical . . . a close-knit clan shielding explosive family secrets from generation to generation. Rebecca is determined to not only embrace her family’s proud heritage but also learn what really happened. From the awestruck hope of Ellis Island to the pride of becoming US citizens; from the lonely courage of establishing homesteads in the Midwest to embracing the community and caring of the church; from bonds of love to the burdens of shared secrets, Lake of the Cedars is a multi-generational American family saga that will keep you enthralled.
