Summary

"The Great Amulet" by Maud Diver is a story unfolding in the early 1900s that dives into the quick marriage of Quita Maurice and Captain Eldred Lenox, setting off a chain reaction of emotional challenges. Against the beautiful scenery of the Swiss Alps, the novel looks at the difficulties of love mixed with chasing your dreams, like Quita's art, and finding yourself when everyone expects you to be a certain way.
