SynopsisDriven Apart by Their Past, Can the Bonds of Sisterhood Survive What Lies Ahead? From the dramatic tradition of such classics as Little Women and A Thousand Acres comes Tracie Peterson's contemporary novel, A Slender Thread. Well-known for her Westward Chronicles series as well as her historical series with Judith Pella, Peterson now uses her agile storytelling skills to tackle a family saga about the bonds of sisterhood, which you will not want to miss. United for the first time in years, five sisters return to their childhood in order to bid farewell to a mother they never knew, lost to the world that had made her a star. Knowing her only in her films, the sisters feel neither an emotional connection with her tragic death nor with each other. Only their deep love for their godly grandmother, Mattie, pulls them together. In the wake of the funeral, the Mitchell sisters discover the impact of their absent mother on the choices they've made throughout their lives. A heartrending betrayal and a second tragedy threaten them further. Haunted by the past, unsure of the future, the sisters have only the example of Mattie and God's grace reaching through her lives to make them a family., Abandoned by a mother who chose to follow the lure of fame, the five Mitchell sisters were raised under the loving hand of their grandmother in the quaint farming community of Council Grove, Kansas. But when independence beckoned, the desire to create a future apart from the shadow of their mother caused them to go their separate ways.As the eldest of five, Ashley always felt a certain obligation to set an example. Her focus has been to create a family -- one that would reveal the inadequacies of her own mother in every way. But under the surface of her carefully maintained existence, trouble brews....Controlled by the demands of her modeling career, Brook yearns for both freedom and security. And Connie has continually isolated herself from the close bonds her sisters share. Lost in her fears and her driving desire for acceptance, she knows the choices she's made may haunt her....Join in a timeless story of family tragedies and triumphs as bestselling author TRACIE PETERSON carefully weaves a story of sisters made whole again only by the power of love.

We all have slender threads of sorts in our lives. God is the answer
The type was small but the contents spoke to me as I.m sure it would to anyone who read it. I'm sure that it would touch some part of you. it will have you crying and filled with the Lord at times. I for one just started reading the authors books and I cannot get enough. I want to read them all I on number 7 or 8 and if I can find them will read them all.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
