Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Trehernes Temptation, Vol. 1 of 3
The capricious sun, who, curiously enough, generally elects to pay his angel-like visits to this foggy island when an east wind is blowing, has been shining genially all day upon the wintry scene; dancing on the old turrets and gables of Girton Abbey, on the great snow-laden trees in the park, on the broad lake, belted with deep woods, which is frozen as deliciously hard and smooth as the heart of skater could desire; early twilight is closing in; a pale, white moon has already risen, the sun's work in this hemi sphere is over for this day, and, with one last rosy kiss on the snow-capped hills, he dis appears behind a fantastic mass of purple, opal edged clouds.
