Review:
“I don’t know another current American writer who could weave the worlds of music and the international concert stage, the claustrophobic life of a great cathedral close, and aspects of the often threatening street life of New York as Miss L’Engle does.” —Edmund Fuller, The Wall Street Journal
“Hours of wonderful, suspenseful, provocative, soul-satisfying entertainment.” —Norman Lear

Born in New York City, L’Engle graduated from Smith College and worked in theater, where she met her husband, actor Hugh Franklin.
