The Blue Bottle Club / Penelope J. Stokes.

Stokes, Penelope J., (author.).

Summary:

Brendan Delaney, a television news reporter, embarks on a quest to find the women who left messages in a blue cobalt bottle detailing their hopes and dreams during the Depression.

Faced with the grim realities of the 1929 Depression, four hopeful girls treasured their youthful aspirations above all else. They wrote their dearest dreams on small pieces of paper and on Christmas Day, in a cold, candlelit attic, secretly placed them inside a cobalt-blue bottle, vowing to remain friends for life. Sixty-five years later, Brendan Delaney, a local television reporter, unepectedly discovers those slips of paper in that dusty forgotten bottle. She embarks on a passionate quest to interview the now-elderly women and discovers what became of their dreams.

One of today's top-selling Christian fiction authors traces the fascinating story of the friendship among four women, from 1929 to the present--all intricately tied to one mysterious blue bottle.
