"FIRES OF INJUSTICE blazes with the courage of those who dared to stand against the darkness."
Set just twenty years after the American Civil War, this gripping tale of resilience, romance, and courage reveals another dark chapter of division?and the light that defied it.
She is fighting for the innocent.
He is fighting for a second chance.
Yakira Mitchell has devoted her life to rescuing the forgotten from the clutches of exploitation, and now her dream of opening a mission home for Chinese girls is within reach. But as anti-Chinese sentiments sweep through the West, Yakira finds herself at the center of a storm of hostility and prejudice. She is building a home for the broken, but her own foundation threatens to crumble with new revelations about her past.
Attorney Grant Campbell, the boy who once held Yakira's heart, returns to San Francisco to atone for his past mistakes and face the secret that drove him away. He is determined to defend Chinese immigrants and to reconcile with his family and Yakira. But old feelings flare?and so do old wounds.
When flames of injustice consume communities, violence rages, and lives hang in the balance. As Yakira fights to protect her girls, she must face the truth of who she really is?and who God has called her to be.
In the ashes of hatred, Yakira and Grant both discover a love stronger than fear and a purpose forged in fire.
For fans of authentic historical fiction, FIRES OF INJUSTICE is inspired by real, untaught horrors of the Chinese Exclusion era?when towns forcibly erased entire communities by fire, expulsion, and boycotts.
