Opis

Liffey Rivers' world is changed forever when she begins to mediate daily in between the two old ginkgo trees in her backyard--voices coming from the ground beneath her, earth tremors, the discovery of an ancient Native American effigy, a mysterious Catholic nun in a white habit floating above her like wispy smoke from a chimney. Almost extinct box turtles are in her yard everyday and there is a mysterious air quality problem in Mineral Point with no apparent cause. When high school students are terrorized by what appears to be a vampire, waiting for their school bus one morning, the Chief of Police becomes involved and discovers that a threatening poem, a box turtle and a warning of retribution written in Japanese, has been deposited in The Foundry Books' pagoda-like haiku box on the bookstore's front porch. Liffey Rivers soon realizes that she is facing an unimaginable crisis in what has, up until now, been a safe place to live and hide.
