Despite Solemn's self-incriminating decision to go into hiding, Cork O'Connor isn't about to hang the crime on a kid he's convinced is innocent. <p/>In an uphill battle to clear Solemn's name, Cork encounters no shortage of adversity. Some--like bigotry and bureaucracy--he knows all too well. What Cork isn't prepared for is the emergence of a long-held resentment from his own childhood. And when Solemn reappears, claiming to have seen a vision of Jesus Christ in Blood Hollow, the mystery becomes thornier than Cork could ever have anticipated. And that's when the miracles start happening.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"[A] chilling story with a warm heart...
