Contact information:
Jan spent a year researching her debut novel, Emancipated Heart, and is excited about sharing this poignant story. Set in a Japanese American internment camp during WWII, the book follows one family through the trials of life behind barbed wire. Considering the current events in our country, this book will remind us how easily history repeats itself, and how God calls us to act humanely in all situations. The topic of internment is not well taught in history books. Emancipated Heart will inform and educate, all while providing an entertaining, enjoyable read for anyone, especially history lovers. Category: women’s historical fiction
