  ABOUT THE BOOK SIBYL TRIMBLE, the daughter of a wealthy banking family during the Great Depression in Shawnee, Oklahoma, promises her father to be part of a political movement to change the world. By 1932, the timing to fulfill that promise seems right. Her life consists of fashionable clothes, cruising in a Model T, and dancing every weekend at the local speakeasy.  FREMONT POPE is a handsome, blue-eyed, down-on-his-luck hobo, and Sibyl’s life turns upside down when she meets him. Her love for him and his Christian family opens her eyes to a different way of life than she has ever known.  Based on a true story, this historical novel follows Sibyl through some difficult choices. She must dig deep within herself to find the strength to face her father and determine which, if any, of her past beliefs can be salvaged. What is more important, love or duty?
