Excerpt from The TrystPatricia merrill, richly clad in gray duvetyne with moleskin trimmings, soft shod in gray suede boots, came slowly down the stairs from the third story, fastening her glove as she went. The top button was refractory and she paused in the middle of the stairs to give it her undivided attention. The light from the great ground-glass skylight overhead sifted down in a pool of brightness about her, and gave a vivid touch to the knot of coral velvet in her little moleskin toque. She was a pretty picture as she stood there with that drifting light about her like silver rain, and a wistful look in her eyes and about her lips.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The Tryst is a Christian inspirational fiction by Grace Livingston Hill A Tale of Love, Friendship, Redemption and more Patricia Merrill, richly clad in gray duvetyne with moleskin trimmings, soft shod in gray suede boots, came slowly down the stairs from the third story, fastening her glove as she went. The top button was refractory and she paused in the middle of the stairs to give it her undivided attention. The light from the great ground-glass skylight overhead sifted down in a pool of brightness about her, and gave a vivid touch to the knot of coral velvet in her little moleskin toque. She was a pretty picture as she stood there with that drifting light about her like silver rain, and a wistful look in her eyes and about her lips. A voice sailed out like a dart from the half-open door at the foot of the stairs and stabbed her heart...

The Tryst is the story of two childhood friends, separately searching for answers. Patty Merrill, newly returned from college, overhears her mother and sister bemoaning her presence. Hurt and confused, and not able to reach her father abroad, Patty spontaneously boards a train for New York. Her pampered life hasn't prepared her for earning a living but she happens on a position as a companion to an old lady. John Treeves has returned from the war in Europe, disillusioned and heartbroken. His mother has died and it was her last wish that he travel to their favorite spot in the mountains to have a tryst with God and attempt to rekindle the Christian faith that he seems to have lost. The tryst becomes a turning point in Treeves' life and after much prayer and Bible readings, he resolves to become a preacher. But to whom should he preach? Without his knowledge, his wily rich uncle engineers an offer from a New York church and it is there that he meets Patty. She is using an assumed name and denies that she's Patty Merrill. But she can't help being influenced by John's preaching and, just as he is determined to devote his life to the downtrodden, she also begins to see the light. Part love story, part social commentary of 1920s America, The Tryst is a testament to the power of faith.
