She gasped as she recognized the dumbwaiter. She slid its door open and peered inside the huge compartment, wondering if it even worked anymore. She pushed the button to the right of the miniature elevator and jumped a bit as it began moving up, slamming her palm against the button again to bring it back down.
Biting her lip as an idea formed in her mind, she turned and sat on the edge and then slid herself in backwards. Claire bit her lip at the throb in her hips and pulled herself in the rest of the way. Being very curious as to how far up it went, Claire reached over and hit the button, wrapping her arms around her knees as the dumbwaiter began its slow journey upwards. She counted the doors on her way and held her breath as she passed the first door, wondering if anyone in the house could hear her.
It ran remarkably silent for not being used in many years, and Claire giggled like a schoolgirl as she passed another door. Claire silently clapped her hands together in excitement, totally anxious to see what she would find in the attic. When her little personal elevator stopped, she slid the door open and gazed out into the dark attic. Frowning, she leaned out a bit to look for windows. She slid out of the dumb-waiter and limped her way over to the far wall. Light filtered around the edges of something propped on a few boxes. She focused on the large picture frame and moved it aside.
The sudden brightness nearly blinded Claire, who shielded her eyes with her hand, before turning her back to the small round window. Her gaze scanned the many boxes and articles that cluttered the large attic. As she looked around, she figured that the attic must cover the entire top of the house. She spotted the descending staircase on her right but paid it no mind, knowing that she would be going down the way she had come up.
Claire looked from one item to the next: There had to be at least fifty boxes, all varying in size. Claire looked back at the picture frame she had moved out of the way. It now leaned against the boxes beside her, and she reached for it. It had to be at least three feet high and maybe two feet wide. She immediately noticed the antique frame and absently wondered about its worth. As she remembered that nothing in the attic belonged to her, she shook her head at her own thought.
Claire held the portrait up in front of her and gasped. The woman within the frame certainly looked younger than Claire and far prettier. She had only seen the old fashioned hairdo in a few movies, as well as the style of her dark blue dress. She looked sort of lost and a bit sad. They seemed so real that it looked like a living photograph. Not wanting to leave the portrait in a dusty attic, Claire took it with her back to the dumbwaiter.
The painting fit nicely in the back of the dumbwaiter, and Claire slid in beside it.

She learned Faith had not wanted to marry the man her parents chose for her. Claire started to dream of Faith and the accident that had taken the girl's life just three days after her marriage.
She decided to remove the portrait from her sight as it was starting to affect her thinking, but when she touched the canvas, something happened. She was no longer herself, she was somehow transported into another realm, into the s, into a pain-free body, and into more problems then she ever dreamed possible. Jude Liebermann has written a compelling novel with equally compelling characters. In this book both love and hate transcend time, and some things are not exactly what they seem to be. Liebermann's detail to life in the depression era help make the story believable.
Claire, being in Faith's body, and with her more modern thinking, causes some waves, and her parents just do not understand her anymore. Though the story has some tragic parts, it is not a dark story, there are moments of humor, too. There are definitely good guys and bad guys.
Can someone from the present go back and change the future?
