Lamps Before Nightfall: 3 Novellas about Women, Love, and Limits

Women under duress, having little or no choice in life, are at the heart of LAMPS BEFORE NIGHTFALL. In BEETHOVEN'S WIFE, composer Ludwig van Beethoven sits for one of the earliest photographs in history, and the world of a defeated young woman ceases to be what she's long accepted. In THE PRODIGAL'S PSALM, set in Roman Egypt, a stoical slave and a reckless dancer enjoy awakenings that are impulsive, profound, and filled with promise that is as troubling as it is unlikely. In ACQUAINTANCE, a sweet Regency, an estate is gambled away, a daughter takes a chance on revenge, and a stranger is at risk of losing his heart. Will a match be made through the ties that blind and other, unspeakable, acts?
