Will a woman "lambent like a great cathedral candle" find her purpose in life with the ambitious religious leader who preaches "beauty through toil," or with the brilliant young architect he has hired to create a resplendent new temple? Although he knows Herman Stein is a charlatan, John Chance accepts Stein's commission for the temple for the sake of building something staggeringly beautiful. Then Chance discovers that Stein's new helper, Cynthia, is the woman he fell in love with in Paris - and who now believes every word the charlatan says.

Autorenporträt
A century ago, Henry Kitchell Webster (1875-1932) was a well-known, well-paid, and well-respected author. His stories frequently appeared in major magazines such as The Saturday Evening Post. In 1921, the New York Times printed his thoughts on "What Is a Novel, Anyhow?" Webster also published more than two dozen novels, including (with Samuel Merwin) *Calumet K*, which is still in print.
