Six-year-old Hannah Campbell woke in her own bed to a house gone strange. The man her father had welcomed beneath their roof was gone. His cigarette butt lay beside Hannah's bed. Before noon, the doctor had sent for the sheriff.
Hannah remembered none of it.
The law called her the victim of a grave offense. Evangelist Silas Wade declared she'd been preserved by God for a higher purpose.
Soon, across county lines, people knew of Child H.
Hannah knew only that H was her letter.
Set among the farms, churches, and hidden mountain communities of The Glens, Child H is a haunting Appalachian novel about memory, faith, silence, and one woman's right to decide what her life will mean.
