Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Key to the Riddle: A Story of Huguenot Days
Proud effort to be calm, Mother, I am seventeen years old to-day. I am 'little Azerole no longer, but a woman grown. I have been telling myself that now it is time I should think of the happiness of others rather than of my own. If I were not so selfish I should not forget so often as I do that it will be even harder for my father and for you to leave the presbytere and our own dear valleys. As Leon says, exile is after all only exile, not worse; and in the new home we have to make for ourselves in the new country we shall have each other, and truly that is everything.
