Passage Oak (The Silent Grove, #2) By K.M. del Mara Paperback 0988396750 9780988396753 Historical Fiction Passage Oak (The Silent Grove, #2) As the 18th century came to an end in Europe, people of all classes were fleeing revolutions and persecution in their native countries and struggling to find a foothold on foreign soil. Tino, a handsome Italian man follows cousins to Cornwall and manages to build a thriving business while fishermen and miners go begging for work. Patrick, an Irish smuggler who had barely escaped death at the hands of a religious gang, is lured to Cornwall by another immigrant, the greedy and enigmatic Zephaniah Cobbs. Bianca, a young French woman who goes from riches to rags, helps young Sébastien escape the French Revolution, never predicting the torment he will be put through as a virtual slave. But being a foreigner is especially difficult for a bi racial baby, accidentally sent to the wrong home from a London orphanage. In a community of fair skinned Cornish girls, she would never truly belong. Arriving one by one in a tiny, hard pressed Cornish village, none of these newcomers find much of a welcome. How could the villagers be expected to greet them with open arms when jobs are so hard to come by, when fishermens nets are coming up empty and mine workers are laid off every day? Time must be relied on to bridge some of the gaps. But the work of acceptance, it turns out, rests not only with the Cornish villagers.
