Aprašymas

Maggie (Magdalene) Stump is a single mother with a GED who is living in the dead-end town of Petroleum, West Virginia. She is the eldest daughter from a family of four children who were all named from the Bible. However, there is nothing holy about the Stump family. They are an odd-ball mix of druggies and drunks, linked together through shared history and common sorrows. Predictably dysfunctional, they all appear to be going nowhere fast. Then a catalyst comes into their lives in the form of a wild crazy circus clown, and change enters the formula. Maggie discovers talents that she didn't know she possessed; and just in time, as the entire family is perched on the brink of disaster. It is only through Maggie's newly-acquired psychic skills that she is able to save her brothers and sisters from certain self-destruction. This is a book about dreaming and the powers that lay within the heart.
