Quentin Laribee is a surgeon, but in the confusion at the end of the Civil War, his healing hands brought death to an enemy soldier. To ease his troubled conscience, he visits the man's impoverished window, only to find himself falling in love. Now he is torn between two choices: a bright medical future with his wealthy fiancee in New York City, or an impossible love with a woman who knows nothing of his terrible secret. In this unforgettable novel, good is found in the unlikeliest places and God's unseen hand weaves a masterful tapestry of human hearts and lives.
Best-selling author Gilbert Morris has created an epic story of war, regret, love, and forgiveness set in the post-Civil War South.

I love Gilbert Morris's novels. This one was fabulous. The plot was great and his characters were very real and engaging. I hope this one will have a sequel. As a fellow Alabamian, I'm so glad that I discovered this talented author right here in my wonderful state. I plan to read all his work.

I started reading Gilbert Morris from the George McDonald revisions, which I loved and grew spiritually from. This one Edge of Honor is filled with choices we make daily and "what would Jesus Do" answers. That is what impresses me about his books...the scriptural value in a most exciting drama.

My husband is very ill and almost totally blind. His only enjoyment is listening to books on tape from the Blind Association. He has "read" well over a thousand books; and, he has picked this book as his favorite. I'll be looking in the blind catalog for more of Mr. Morris' books....and I thank you for bringing him pleasure.
