The story unfolds against the backdrop of a snowstorm in New York, where the protagonist grapples with love, choices, and the pursuit of a meaningful life.

Ultimately, she renounces these material pursuits in favor of an ethical and morally superior path - a narrative reminiscent of the story of Christ, but portrayed through the lens of a woman. ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Kathleen Thompson Norris (July 16, 1880 - January 18, 1966) was an American novelist and newspaper columnist.
