Wednesday's Child — Linda Chaikin / Linda Lee Chaikin

Wall Street, 1929 -- Sharlotte Ashford and her invalid sister have nowhere to turn. Their wealth and prestige have been lost in the Crash, and their father has mysteriously disappeared after heading west to rebuild the family fortune. As the cold, snowy winter descends on them, Sharlotte can't help but remember the sunshine of Kace Landry. He had loved her one brief summer when she was visiting an aunt and uncle in Texas.

In this time of despair, Kace suddenly appears again with news of her father... and of gold hidden in Mexico. Though she had once rejected him as a suitor beneath her social status, can she talk him into helping her now? Will he be willing to forget the past, or is it too late?

On an adventurous journey from the sanctuary of her refined New England home to the untamed wilds of the West, Wednesday's child discovers that while she might have woe, life is never so dark that God cannot deliver His children and place them on the path of light.
