Serendipity in the Search for Jens, Karen Marie, and Ane: A Polygamy Story tells of the author's ancestral family in Denmark who in 1874-75 joined the "Mormon" Church. They left working other people's farms and traveled by ships and trains to the Territory of Utah to settle near their newly espoused Church. Hardscrabble farming proved challenging, and the request of their ecclesiastical leader that Jens enter into polygamy was even more challenging. Equal treatment of both families proved difficult, and a prison sentence for cohabitation loomed. Jens's families attempted to cope valiantly with the rigors of the lifestyle he, Karen Marie, and Ane had obediently entered into without realizing what it entailed.

Описание:
Two sisters, Janet and Charlotte, come into the foster care program when Alanna and Jared, two professionals in the music world, take on the responsibility of their care. But Alanna and Jared find that Charlotte becomes the victim of bullying at her junior high school. Janet becomes the victim of a teenage abductor who sees her as the object of his sick fancy. Even Alanna is taken in by a new neighbor, Gretchen, who confesses to having been a part of a prostitution setup run by a man with whom she had become involved romantically. When Janet is abducted by that same man, it is Gretchen who risks her life to gain Janet's release and bring her back to Alanna and Jared.
Upon learning that Charlotte has a very good and potentially commercially appealing singing voice, Alanna arranges for vocal coaching by a former professional singer to prepare Charlotte for a possible singing career. Janet's flair for designing fashion jewelry prompts Jared and Alanna to enroll her in a prestigious school to learn the craft and work toward a career.
Distant relatives of the girls apparently learn of their good fortune and conspire to gain custody of the girls at a time when Jared and Alanna have decided to adopt them.
