NON FICTION TITLES ALL AT LOW PRICES! BRAND NEWIt is January 1987, Small Plains, Kansas. On the night of the decade's worst blizzard, a boy discovers the naked corpse of a beautiful girl. No-one can identify her, so the people of the town bury her with a gravestone marked with the date and 'Peace Be Unto You'. Seventeen years later, the mysterious dead girl - the 'Virgin of Small Plains' - has inspired a local myth. In the two decades since her death, strange miracles have visited those who faithfully tend her grave; some believe her spirit can cure deadly illnesses, while others credit her with the town's economic prosperity. Word of the legend spreads and Small Plains becomes a haven for an onslaught of spiritual seekers and the terminally ill, all hoping the Virgin will answer their prayers. When the mysterious Mitch Newquist reappears and a vengeful tornado devastates Small Plains, the truth begins to emerge. What really happened seventeen years ago? Why did Mitch suddenly disappear the same night the Virgin's body was found - abandoning his first love, Abby Reynolds? And why are some of the town's leading citizens so determined that the truth remain buried?PLEASE VISIT OUR EBAY SHOP FOR THOUSANDS OF OTHER FICTION AND NON FICTION TITLES ALL AT LOW PRICES! YOU'LL FIND GREAT VALUE TITLES AS WELL AS SETS OF BOOKS FOR YOUNGER PEOPLE, OLDER PEOPLE AND EVERYONE IN-BETWEEN. WE ARE BLACKS BARGAIN BOOKS, BASED IN THE UK.THANK YOU FOR BUYING FROM US, WE REALLY APPRECIATE IT!pb 9/18, Neu, Festpreisangebot, [LT: FixedPrice], Artikelzustand: Neu, Book Title: The virgin of small plains, Ex Libris: No, Narrative Type: Fiction, Country/Region of Manufacture: United Kingdom, Subject: Literary Fiction, Format: Paperback, Original Language: English, Intended Audience: Adults, Brand: Unbranded, Unbranded<
