An abandoned young girl finds herself at the mercy of a mysterious
woman who is not quite what she seems in this atmospheric and
unputdownable novel from the New York Times bestselling author of
Flowers in the Attic-now a popular Lifetime movie. Left on a train
platform in an unfamiliar village, little Saffron Faith Anders is
certain her father will return shortly, just like he promised. She
holds out hope even as the hours pass and the station grows dark.
When a strange old woman with a large umbrella approaches and
inquiries about her situation, Saffron doesn't immediately trust
the imposing do-gooder, but with the chances of her father
returning growing ever slimmer, she agrees to rest at the old
woman's house. Her stay was supposed to be for a few minutes, hours
at most, but soon, Saffron soon realizes she has been confined to a
house of dark secrets and is now at the mercy of the enigmatic
Umbrella Lady. One minute grandmotherly and the next wickedly
cruel, she shears Saffron's hair, burns all the clothes she had in
her suitcase, and pretends that the photo of a young girl hanging
on her bedroom wall is no one in particular. When strange letters
arrive from Saffron's father, claiming that he will send for her
shortly, hope returns to her young heart. But Saffron soon
discovers that those who claim to love you will often hurt you the
most.
