All night she had lain motionless in the massive four-poster bed, unable to sleep, the stillness of the house oppressive and clutching. Even after weeks of knowing it would not come, her ears were still tuned for the baby's hungry cry. Her breast still filled, ready to welcome the tiny, eager lips. With these words begins a novel that takes, the reader into the heart and mind of Jenny MacPartland, who marries the man she loves- only to find herself trapped in a world of horror. .Jenny is a divorced mother of two girls-attractive, poor, charming and resourceful, skilled at making ends meet and hardly even daring to hope the right man will come along for her. A city girl, Jenny supports herself and her children by working in a fashionable Manhattan art gallery. It is there that she first becomes aware of the paintings of Erich Krueger- brilliantly detailed, lyrical evocations of peaceful country life that touch her deeply- and, above all, of the haunting portrait of a beautiful woman who seems to her strangely familiar. When she meets Krueger, a handsome, powerful and elegant man, Jenny is swept off her feet. After a lightning courtship, Erich marries Jenny and carries her off to his home in Minnesota, a home of such wealth, comfort and luxury that Jenny feels like a princess in a fairy story, despite the forbidding, cold and brooding landscape-and the rumors that something terrible once happened in the exquisite Krueger mansion. Soon, however, Jenny's happiness is shattered by a series of bizarre and terrifying incidents that threaten first her marriage, then her children, then her life-until Jenny's only hope lies in unraveling the truth about the past, a truth that is hidden in the great house which has become her prison.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, a series of persuasive letters from a minister to the working classes of 19th century Britain, unpacks the roots of the Christian trinity doctrine. Victorian readers were grappling with their faith in an age of widespread religious skepticism, leading the author to provide an accessible historical examination of the doctrine. Through meticulously tracing the evolution of the trinity concept from pagan and pre-Christian mythologies through the writings of early Christian leaders, the author demonstrates its origins in ancient polytheistic beliefs. This work offers a unique perspective on the historical formation of Christian theology, providing insights that remain valuable to contemporary readers seeking to understand the evolution of religious ideas.
