The Charactersīrooklyn: Hendrika is my favorite character. Eventually the truth will have to come out. Luke, Nora, their children Amy and Nattie, and Hendrika have all told lies out of love or necessity. But you can’t judge a book by its cover-everyone has a secret. From the outside, they are the perfect family. Their daughters are grown and the ranch is making quite a bit of money. Nora and Luke Hamilton have made a good life for themselves. With nothing but her meager belongings in a carpet bag and trepidation for taking a dead woman’s place at a stranger’s side, she hops on the train to begin her journey. ![]() Nothing left, that is, but the ticket from Boston to Oregon that Jo was sent by a man expecting his mail-order bride. ![]() Hendrika Aaldenberg has nothing left after her best friend Johanna dies, she loses her job, and is kicked out of the boarding house she’s been living in. In our opinion (Brooklyn, Tara and Sheena), you don’t need to read Backwards to Oregon to read Hidden Truths, but it adds depth to the story. Hidden Truths by Jae takes place 17 years after Backwards to Oregon ends. ![]()
