First sentence: In a small low-thatched cabin, roughly built of wood, lay a woman past middle life, with sunken eyes and the flush of fever on her cheeks.
Description: Based on a true story, this Esther-like tale recounts the deeds of the courageous Adelina of the ancient German Culdee church as she endures and overcomes persecution, slander, exile, and the impending destruction of her people, being used by God as Princess Adelina, to see the hope of the Gospel of Jesus Christ shine forth and prevail!
