Read Sunlight (The Four Lights Quartet Book 2) Storyline:
“I guess grief is the price we pay for love, Mister Owens.” July 1863 and Gilbert Owens is a photographer lost in a world of guilt and whisky following the death of Sarah, the love of his life. But then he learns that a great battle between the Union and the Confederacy has begun at Gettysburg. If a photographer can get pictures of the dead on the battlefield and bring them back to exhibit them in Washington, he will make a small fortune, just as Mathew Brady did after the Battle of Antietam. Now Gilbert Owens has a chance to put his life back together. But there are other photographers who would beat him to scoop the pictures. And what is he to do when he encounters slave catchers kidnapping free blacks and returning them as slaves to the South? And how can a man bring himself to do any of this when he has lost everything he loved? Sunlight is part anti-war novel, part road movie, part love story. By turns funny and heartbreaking it is about rebuilding when you have lost everything and about how chance brings love into our lives. Fergus O’Connell’s first novel, Call The Swallow, was short listed for the 2002 Kerry Ingredients Irish Fiction Prize and nominated for the Hughes & Hughes / Sunday Independent Novel of the Year. Sunlight is the second book in a quartet that was begun with Starlight.Pages of Sunlight (The Four Lights Quartet Book 2) :
