A story of love, loss, and survival in Acadie, Refuge chronicles the sitirring stories of Pierre Suret and Catherine Bro, who escaped the Acadian deportation but not the consequences of the Grand Dérangement.

"The events of the story are deeply tragic-this is a land more bloodstained than we know-and this is only pointed up more by Susan's irony. I laughed very often, but this book also made me cry."                 -Susan Haley, novelist.
