Living in the forbidding hills of West Virginia, a mother and daughter—abused for years by a renegade Confederate drifter they know only as Papa—find deliverance in the compassionate care at the Trans-Allegheny Lunatic Asylum. At the hospital, they reunite all too briefly with Ephraim, employed there as a night watch. The novel explores the struggle for identity amid the turmoil of war, the healing power of empathy and community, and supremely, the transformative power of the supra-natural.
EVERYONE WELCOME.
