Description:

Big-City Dreams, Small-Town Romance, Deep Dark Secrets Gifted storyteller Lance Wubbels again returns to small-town Minnesota for a new tale of romance, forgiveness, and trust. One of the most respected writers today, Wubbels spins gentle tales filled with history, memorable characters, and engaging plots that have been a favorite of readers everywhere. Now with In the Shadow of a Secret, Wubbels continues to write slice-of -American-history novels that will fill your heart and find a prominent place on your bookshelf. In the Shadow of a Secret introduces Andrew Regan and Christina Ellington, strangers who meet in a small southern Minnesota town in 1937. A recent seminary graduate, Regan arrives to take over a village church despite having been offered several larger pastorates in the cities. He feels the church is where God is leading him to be until a passel of troubles early on make him question his decision. Christina left Minnesota to pursue art lessons in Chicago with a famous artist. In paying for her instruction she is commissioned by the city's wealthiest families to paint portraits, opening the door to a future she never thought possible. Secrets she left at home, however, resurface and her mother's sudden illness forces her to return despite her desire to escape forever. At home once more, Christina realizes that in caring for her mother, she and her family must finally reconcile and confront the years of separation and pain that have divided them for so long. When Andrew steps in as an ally and source of comfort, the two are soon faced with the question of whether their new friendship can be anything more.
