Granddaughter of a loving, but roguish businessman, Blis Dumas can't escape a legacy of lies. The time is 1989. The place is San Francisco's Fillmore District where painful stories of eviction and relocation still echo within its borders. Clinging desperately to the Victorian home she inherited, she is confronted by a stranger that brings her a life filled with revenge, corruption, and murder. In an unparalleled twist of fate, she discovers that her predicament may have roots buried much closer to home. Blis' world starts to crumble as she fights the city to save the home she adores, the temptation of an incorrigible former lover, and the perils threatening the tender passion of a new budding romance. Quiver of the Pure Heart will appeal to readers that appreciate a social setting that illuminates the universal themes of desire, forgiveness, compassion, and letting go. San Francisco is one of the loves of Blis' life, and like any love relationship, it is where her emotions will be tested, where romance will live and die, and where people are not always as they seem. Burnita Bluitt offers a spirited and passionate story of love and corruption in the city by the bay.
