Rebecca's Hope immediately immerses the reader into the human backdrop of the late 1700's on Nantucket Island. Rebecca Ann Stewart-Lathrope is about to give birth to her first child when her cruel brother, an arrogant, self-indulgent southern plantation owner demands that she leave the island and travel to Virginia. Once there, Rebecca gives birth to a boy child. Her brother refuses to accept him as a member of his family and sends the child (Rebecca's Hope) to be raised in the slave quarters.

Elizabeth Elliott King was born in Lynwood, California. She has been married for fifty seven years to James A. King and they have six children, fourteen grandchildren and three great-grandchildren.
Elizabeth Elliot King's storytelling ability is clear from the first moments of reading the prologue of Rebecca's Hope. During the first page my mind was tumbled back through time and into an intriguing story, which began on a slaveholder's plantation in Virginia. The unspeakable cruelty found there could only be matched by the courage and kindness of a few souls who were willing to stand for what is right under the threat of death and ruin." --A Reader in Packsaddle, Arkansas
