Opis

We enter FAYD through the story of a little girl, ten year old April Roze, who has run away from the boarding school where her widowed father placed her. April hasn't had any contact with her father, Thomas Roze, still despondent over his wife's death, in far too long. Roze is attempting to bury his grief in the overseas work he and his wife began together, that of unearthing the truth of a long believed myth' that divides their people, now settled comfortably in America. This legend is one of possible mass murder, which today has close ties to both the current leadership cadre of their people at home and a well funded bandit operating out of the ruins of their ancestral birthplace. April, carrying something she believes may bring her father home, starts her search in the City where Thomas was last seen and where her deceased mother's twin sister, her aunt Fay d'Wallach, still lives. But her aunt is having problems of her own, both physical and financial and the last thing Fay needs in this time of crisis, is a visit from a self-possessed 10 year old with an adventurous agenda. When the child arrives, she bonds tighter to her aunt's upstairs neighbor than with Fay, a woman that she doesn't trust on sight.
