About this listen
Will Robinson is tasked with the responsibility of rescuing several Mormon families from mobsters. Rachel Ramsey, the talented singer/actress daughter of an English lord, must choose between someone of her own nobility class and the tall, ruggedly handsome Will Robinson, a Mormon frontiersman.
Revenge and recompense include the fates of a brutal workhouse overseer and a cruel prison warden who led an ambush against a highly successful Will Robinson during an Olympic Tournament held in London.
During the California Gold Rush, Will Robinson saves the life of a crude ex-pirate calling himself “El Capitán”, who leads Will Robinson to a cave filled with stolen treasure. Will hires Stanford Hume of London, a Sherlock Holmes-type detective, to find the identity of the corpse of a beautiful woman in a coffin found in the treasure cave. The face of the corpse shockingly resembles the face of the beautiful Rachel Ramsey who is still alive.
Will Robinson rescues desperate saints including Anson Cobb and “Hattie the Swamp Witch”. Will romances the “Ice Princess” of Danish nobility, while Rachel romances the Duke of Devonshire, followed by the Earl of Kent, both of English nobility.
Rachel performs Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet in London and Nauvoo before the remaining saints are driven out at the end of the Battle of Nauvoo. At a musical talent extravaganza held in Copenhagen, Denmark, Rachel dances the Scottish Highland Fling, Mexican Fandango, and the Russian sword dance, wowing audiences composed of common folk as well as European nobility.

Story
Young Hiram Walker was born into bondage. When his mother was sold away, Hiram was robbed of all memory of her - but was gifted with a mysterious power. Years later, when Hiram almost drowns in a river, that same power saves his life. This brush with death births an urgency in Hiram and a daring scheme: to escape from the only home he’s ever known. So begins an unexpected journey that takes Hiram from the corrupt grandeur of Virginia’s proud plantations to desperate guerrilla cells in the wilderness, from the coffin of the South to dangerously idealistic movements in the North.

Story
In the home where Arabella Godwin was raised it is forbidden to speak her name, and her picture is turned to the wall. But in the turbulent America of the 1850s, everyone knows her as "Belle Cora", madam of San Francisco's finest bordello. Judges and senators do her bidding; a vicious newspaper editor plots her downfall; a preacher looks at her from across his pulpit and tries to forget that once she was his wife. Merchant's daughter, farm girl, prostitute, mother - the only thing that never changes is her tireless pursuit of the one man who can see her for who she really is.

Teresa July has led a hard life, but now she has a chance to put her train-robbing past behind her. Armed with a new job as a cook to one of Philadelphia's elite families, Teresa is determined to start her life anew, and nothing - not even her boss' stuck-up (and far too handsome) son - is going to stand in her way. Madison Nance is sick of his mother taking in women from the wrong side of the tracks, just to see them turn on her generosity. That's why it's up to him to keep a close eye on Teresa's every move.

Story
It isn't easy being the oldest boy in a house run by women - especially for Jerin Whistler. The grand-matriarchs of his clan are descended from soldiers, spies, and thieves. That's partly what's kept their family alive in the wilderness. But it also means Jerin's doomed to marry the girls next door - a fate he's convinced is worse than death. But Jerin gets in even worse trouble when, in the process of a daring rescue, he falls in love with a royal princess who's as high above his station as it's possible to be.

This beautifully constructed family saga spans three generations set all within the macabre world of the civil war era American funeral industry where weepers, warners, death photographers and the new practice of embalming the dead dwelled. For generations, the women of the Fenn family have been traditional “weepers”; paid mourners who attend wakes and weep for the dead. Their counterparts, the men of the True family, are undertakers, or “warners.”
