About this listen
The compelling story of the Kade family continues in this second volume of The Kade Family Saga series, A Place of Promise, written by Laurel Mouritsen.
The Kades’ two older children, Elizabeth and James, are growing into young adults in the peaceful riverside town of Nauvoo, Illinois, in the 1840s. When traitors plot to murder the Prophet Joseph Smith, James learns of their plan. Danger and intrigue mount as James strives to shield the Prophet from assassination.
Meanwhile, Elizabeth faces dangers of a spiritual nature when she begins associating with friends who will lead her away from the gospel and bring her into open conflict with her family. During a trip to Montrose, she comes in contact with a young Sauk and Fox Indian; their paths will cross again in a surprising twist of events.
As the peace of Nauvoo is being destroyed by foes from within and without the Church, brother and sister are on a collision course that will shatter their family and have repercussions for generations of Kades to come.
Join the Kades in all the color and pageantry, intrigue and suspense, of old Nauvoo. Its legacy as a place of promise will stir your heart and deepen your appreciation for the early Saints.

Fab story awful accents
Has the narrator ever heard an actual liverpudlian accent? Haiden is supposed to be from Liverpool but sound like he is from Oliver Twist London!!! Other than the awful accents the story is a sturdy sequal and I live the story.

Not as good as the first book.
Having thoroughly enjoyed Book 1 in the series, I was looking forward to this one. I was really disappointed. It was extremely slow and plodding. The book was all over the place, with little continuity. In an attempt to weave history into fiction, the author has simply produced large paragraphs of historical fact, with young children talking about it between themselves. This doesn't work because it's simply not believable that such young children would even know that level of history and also it simply comes across as a rather boring history book. Finally the narrator attempt at an English Liverpool accent is dreadful! Really disappointing follow up novel.
