Publisher's Synopsis
Also includes the new novelette, Bianca the Blind. Following her third miscarriage, Tatiana Anderson is devastated and teeters on the edge of insanity. Her wounds only begin to heal after her husband, Alex, arranges for the adoption of a twelve year old girl named Charitina ("Charley") from his place of employment - the mysterious quasi-governmental institution known as The Castle. Charley is a delightful girl who immediately steals her parents' hearts, but then - three years later - her soul is apparently snatched away in the night and all that remains is a shell. What follows is a harrowing adventure in which one dream sequence is succeeded by another. The question is: shall the light finally prevail over the darkness? The answer, dear reader, is obvious: "If God is for us, who can be against us?"
