A Train. A Fiddle. A Crow.
It’s 1878, and young Agnes MacKay is lost. In search of her imagined father, she leaves the County Farm only to become trapped on a southbound train. Her unplanned journey brings her into the heart of Boston, where, like herself, she is amongst countless other lil’ wanderers—moral stains on society—living in the streets, avoiding the asylums and orphan trains.
Her days are numbered as a series of mishaps land her in The Mission, where she is forced to forfeit her name for a number. She lines up with the other girls, heads bowed in silence, scrubbing laundry and avoiding the man cloaked in darkness.
Samuel stays at the Farm, forming a bond with Caesar—a seasoned elder who made his way North—deeply entrenched in the Hodgdon family secrets. Caesar is the caretaker of a fiddle passed down throughout the generations, crossing the Atlantic and safely tucked away. He guards the family legacy, finally delivering it into the hands of its rightful owner.
Sarah and the others leave Fall River, ready to fetch Samuel. Will he go? Can she leave her childhood home after facing ghosts from the past? Trains—they come, and they go. Where will the crows’ path lead?

++++++What a milestone ! To maintain and develope a seed of an idea over four volumes over more than one decade is proof enough that you are a fine writer . To create characters that holds the interest of the reader confirms that fact. The characters epitomise every human emotion and their interaction may be restricted to the stories , but are in effect, timeless. It is heartening to know that in a world that is full of superficial distraction , that the storytelling tradition is in good hands. The undisclosed drama of the actual writing itself is another tale to be told in time..
