Description
The power of love ... even that coming from the grave .. ***Barbara*** has too much money and no friends. ***Sally*** is abrasive and opportunistic, and a gifted mimic. *Lee* is a frustrated artist. ***Katherine*** is exploited by her unkind family, particularly her predatory sister. **The lives of all four young people** become ***intertwined through the wheelchair-bound Dean of Trinity Cathedral, Chicago***, who helps each one work out his/her particular destiny. **Christian-themed novel from the author of The Robe and The Magnificent Obsession.**
Description
IT was a serious occasion and Barbara’s eyes were misty, but she couldn’t help smiling when she heard the concluding article of her great-grandmother’s will. Even Mr. Leighton himself, though he did not alter the prudential tone with which he had done appropriate honor to this lengthy instrument, grinned dryly while reading the final paragraph. ‘And it is my further request that at eleven A.M., on the first Lord’s Day subsequent to her graduation from college, the said Barbara Breckenridge shall present herself, unaccompanied, at divine services in Trinity Cathedral, Chicago.’
