The Speck In My Eye

By Erika Strupp-Martin

In the summer of 1960, Gretchen Schiffer meets Peter Neumann. Her mother believes he's a perfect match for a husband. The problem? Gretchen, at sixteen, is too young for marriage. But her mother is persuasive, and four months later, she signs papers for Gretchen, still underage and plagued with anxiety, to marry Peter. After the nuptials, Gretchen becomes more anxious and withdraws into bizarre behavior. About a year later, after the birth of her son Timothy, she is tormented by flashbacks to her earlier life.
The unthinkable happens. Gretchen falls in love with another man, Eduardo Giovanni. But she's a married woman with a child. Ironically, Peter reveals a secret that threatens their relationship as much as her desire for another man. Her choice brings her to the edge of ultimate destruction.
