    About this ebook

    Eleanor survives, it is what she does. But at what cost? After learning her past and seeing the terrible and tragic history of her kind, Eleanor must conclude she is toxic, a cause of pain and destruction. For everyone's own good, she will disappear forever. But first, one last visit to Jamesford. Eleanor returns to find the little Wyoming town mourning for its lost child. The unremarkable girl who, in life, wanted only to be ignored, is a celebrity in death, a tourist attraction, a legend. A mystery. But not everyone thinks Eleanor's dead. While some wait in hope for her return, others wait in ambush.
