Beyond the Red Gate is the first book in a trilogy, Three Young Ladies of Clarke. The early 1900's signaled a turning point for women as opportunities became available for those who wanted to work outside the home and gain a sense of independence. Carolyn finds her opportunity in the decision to become a nurse. Her first position, in her native county of Clarke, Virginia, leads to unexpected trials, lasting friendships, and a road to her future. To the young nurse, 1913 is a year of coming of age, which her mother aptly describes with the words, "You've grown away from us, Carolyn." You, dear reader, are invited to come along on her journey as you go, Beyond the Red Gate. Look for The Milliner, the second book in the trilogy, due to be released in 2012.
