Wonderful story of Good vs. Evil with a surprise ending

I first read this book as a 17 year old and loved it! I just re-read it -and it's still just as good, 30 years later. Crosses all age levels. It's really a girl's story; I don't see my husband being interested in this. Bonnie Jones Reynolds now runs an animal rescue facility called Spring Farm Cares- her old family farm and the setting for this story. Someone call Bonnie and tell her this story should be brought to the masses and immortalized in the movies!

My favourite book - ever

I was touched by the illustration of how events can spiral beyond the truth - even without malicious intentions - to inflict real and lasting pain. The way we deal with this fundamental injustice is what reveals our character, our courage, and our humanity. The struggle is truthfully and touchingly portrayed in a setting that has supernatural, mythical, and more sinister satanical elements as its backdrop, making it all the more a page-turner.

This is a great read about the way people think

This book begins as a simple story set in the 1920s with witchcraft and unicorns in the background, and becomes a mystery as stranger and stranger events follow. This is also a story about people-- and how stories can snowball from a child's tale into a trial. The characters are well painted, you'll be hooked!
