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.’

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.
