Orphaned at 13, Willow is forced to leave her childhood home and live among estranged family who are as different from her as demons are from angels, and whose habits and secrets are as unnatural as the darkness that pervades her new “home”. Did that darkness follow her there? Or did it lure her there?
Fear for her own safety takes a backseat when she meets their 300 pound dog who has been abused to the point of insanity. Even though she knows he would surely tear her to shreds if given the chance, she feels the desire to protect him. And when she finds three females neglected and left to die in the barn, she finds her reason for staying there.
Willow is the only one who cares about them, and the only one who can keep them safe. But how is one extra small girl going to protect four giant dogs all by herself? In her darkest hour, she is surprised to find that she is not alone, and when the darkness finally reveals itself to her, her angel of protection comes in a very unlikely form.
“He seemed to be surrounded by a soft white light. I had to be hallucinating from exhaustion. I closed my eyes and shook my head. When I opened them, the light was gone, and his eyes … his eyes were calm, and instead of being full of rage and insanity, for the first time, I saw a soul there.”
