The Key on the QuiltBy Stephanie Grace WhitsonDescription:Originally published by Barbour, The Key on the Quilt introduces readers to three women who face trial, betrayal and redemption in a historic prison in Nebraska. Convicted of murder, Jane Prescott begins serving her ten-year sentence. Will the prison doctor be a balm to her broken spirit? Mamie Dawson believes God has called her to be a matron of the women's prison dormitory. Are the attentions of a homely guard another part of God's plan for Mamie? Ellen Sullivan, the warden's wife, is teaching literacy to the female convicts. Can this endeavor change her preconceptions of these incarcerated women? What will a cryptic quilt connecting these ladies reveal about one woman's past and mean for all their futures? Book Takeaway:Prison walls can neither frustrate God's plans nor keep love out. Why the author wrote this book:To explore the theme of forgiveness. This is Book 1 in the Quilt Chronicles series. |
