About this item
Her godly mother is dead and her bitter father wants his freedom. What's left for Delphinia Elizabeth Hughes? Hired to be a nanny for five orphaned children and a housekeeper for their uncle, Delphinia begrudgingly leaves her childhood home in Illinois for an uncertain future on a Kansas homestead. Only the threads of a precious quilt remain to tie Delphinia to the mother who taught her to trust in God. Dalphinia endures loneliness, anger, danger, death, and despair as her faith guides her and transports her to a better life with a steadfast man prepared for her by God.
