| Summary | "My Lady of the North" by Randall Parrish is a historical novel written in the early 20th century that revolves around the tumultuous times of the American Civil War. The story primarily follows Captain Philip Wayne, a Confederate officer, who is tasked with delivering an urgent dispatch to General Longstreet. The narrative captures the blend of perilous duty and romance as Wayne encounters challenges on the battlefield while navigating complex relationships, potentially with a woman named Mrs. Brennan, whose fate becomes intertwined with his. The opening of the novel introduces readers to Captain Wayne as he meets General Lee, who assigns him a critical mission involving high stakes and imminent danger. The urgency of his task is established quickly, fueling a sense of impending action. As Wayne prepares for a night ride with Sergeant Craig, the camaraderie between them is evident, suggesting a backdrop of loyalty and valor amidst chaos. However, soon after, they find themselves unexpectedly responsible for the welfare of a woman who has been swept into their conflict after a chance encounter. Tension mounts as they navigate treacherous terrain, ultimately leading to a life-threatening confrontation, compelling Captain Wayne to confront not only the duties of war but the complexities of human connection and choice in times of strife.
