Set in the early days of Christianity, Elizabeth Helme's St. Margaret's Cave or the Nun's Story tells the tale of a young woman who defies her parents and takes the veil. But life in the convent is not what she expects, and she soon finds herself at odds with the Mother Superior. With a gripping plot, richly drawn characters, and vivid descriptions of life in a medieval convent, this novel is an enchanting read.
