About this book
After years in a quiet London household, Hilda Thorn moves to her guardian's country home in Hertfordshire. The Forsyth family welcomes her into a lively circle of parties, teasing conversation and social plans. Hilda, newly committed to her Christian faith, worries about holding to her convictions among people who seem unlikely to understand them. Two words from Jeremiah, 'Dwell deep,' become her guide to finding steadiness beneath everyday pressures.
Amy Le Feuvre tells this religious novel through Hilda's own account, bringing her private doubts alongside the talk and bustle of family life. Hilda also plays the violin for Miss Rayner, whose encounter with an old acquaintance has stirred painful memories. Music gives Hilda another way to express the belief that shapes her choices. Published in 1896, the story offers readers of Christian fiction a young woman's view of faith in ordinary company, with attention to friendship, sensitivity and the difficulty of putting belief into practice.
