And Alice can suddenly hear and speak, and she can perform miracles. Soon the site of the visitation, beneath an ancient oak tree, has become a shrine, a holy place for thousands of pilgrims.

A nice little horror tale full of evil, greed and revenge. (

La dame blanche, auréolée de lumière, disait être l'immaculée conception. Et elle avait choisi Alice. Alice,une petite fille sourde et muette, qui soudain pouvait entendre et parler, une petite fille qui dimanche après dimanche, guérissait miraculeusement les incurables Très vite le lien de l'apparition, sous les branches d'un chêne plusieurs centenaire, était devenu un sanctuaire, un lieu saint pour des milliers de pèlerins. Mais Alice n'est plus l'enfant candide dépassée par son statut de sainte. Elle est devenue l'émissaire d'une force maléfique vieille de-plusieurs siècles.. (

Cover blurb:

AND A CHILD WILL LEAD THEM

Just a short time ago, the child had been a deaf-mute.
That was before it happened.
Now Alice can suddenly speak and hear. Now she has it in her power to work miracles.
And as soon as it becomes clear what Alice can do, the town--and then the entire world--begins worshiping her.
But not the ones who've learned the truth in all its evil, screaming horror.
For little Alice not only has the power to cure, she now has the centuries-old, blackest power of vile, unholy death...

Red blood out and black blood in,
My Nannie says I'm a child of sin.
How did I choose me my witchcraft kin?
Know I as soon as dark's dreams begin
Snared is my heart in a nightmare's gin;
Never from terror I out may win;
So dawn and dusk I pine, peak, thin,
Scarcely knowing t'other from which -
My great grandma - She was a Witch.
THE LITTLE CREATURE: Walter de la Mare

The small mounds of dark earth scattered around the graveyard looked as though the dead were pushing their way back into the living world.
