hardcover

Margreet comes from a plain family, and their simple lifestyle annoys her, often causing conflict. She wants to live higher, like one of her friends. When her best friend Tineke becomes incurably sick and dies in peace, Margreet comes to understand that there is something better to be found – something higher and more important than being rich or famous.

Margreet has passed her exams and graduated from high school, but has no idea what she wants to do with her life. While she visits her uncle and aunt in Canada, she forms a relationship with Ralph, a veterinary student with an entirely different upbringing from hers. This causes her much trouble and conflict.

Despite being bound to a wheelchair, Rik is able to continue his studies and Margreet is enabled to help and assist him in everything. Together they may see it as a wonder that Rik’s physical condition is gradually improving, but Margreet has something else to struggle with…

After an auto accident confines Rik to a wheelchair, it seems there is no future for him and Margreet anymore. Then a way miraculously opens whereby they are united in marriage much sooner than they expected.

Margreet is back again from Canada and, for the time being, lives at home with her parents.

She knows now what kind of work she wants to do. However, before she gets that far, she has many difficult moments to overcome, especially because of her extremely private character.

What happens, and how everything is resolved, is contained in this third book in the Margreet series.
