Publisher's Note
This daring novel--based on the life of a man who lived in California in the first half of the century--reveals an enigmatic man who, quietly and with a sense of certitude, tells his story: a story of children healed by his herbal medicine; of children photographed by him as they played nude; of children who were violated by him; and of families who not only trusted but defended him when his actions were brought to light.
Editiorial Reviews
Review (Kirkus, 02/16/1996): "Setting herself a difficult task, British Columbia's Hartog debuts magnificently with a tale--said to be based on real events--of a pedophile...a first novel at once so riveting and disquieting that it may well prove unforgettable....Poetic in evoking California's landscapes and seasons, this is also painfully meticulous in detailing the black deeds of a complex man descending through a darkness still quite human to a place where demons dwell."
