Today, Ed and I are excited to introduce you to the next character in our upcoming historical novel CALLED: Anastasia Brighton.

The child of a British father and Argentinian mother, born in a wealthy neighborhood of Buenos Aires, Anastasia (Ana) grew up as a pampered and precocious only child. By the time she went to Montevideo, Uruguay in 1935, one of the first women to study at the School of Law, she was a highly vocal political activist and feminist.

In 1939, Ana is invited for a post-JD at Yale. She returns home on the same ship that carries John Schmidt to South America in 1941. Their intense shipboard conversations about recent Nazi uprisings deplore what is occurring, but they disagree vehemently about what should be done in response.

Ana is powerfully drawn to this intense young physician, puzzled that he seems oblivious to her charms. On the surface, she and John are nothing alike. But they share a passion to make a difference in the world. Neither of them knows how this chance meeting will bind them together for the rest of their lives.
