The latest novella from the bestselling Hill, a transfixing parable of greed, goodness and an extraordinary miracle. From the author of "The Woman In Black" and the Simon Serailler crime series.

Synopsis
Tommy Carr was a kind man; Eve had been able to tell that after half an hour of knowing him. There had never been a day when he had not shown her some small kindness. The birth of a daughter, Jeannie Eliza, crowns the young couple's happiness - just as her shockingly early death casts them low.
