Miriam paints the future...but can she change it? Chicago - 1890
Miriam watches the people jostle their way below the windows of her
warehouse home, never thinking to look up at her as she paints
their faces. But Miriam's gift as an artist goes beyond a mere
recording of what is: Miriam paints their futures. Only once was
she wrong. One woman doesn't match the future Miriam saw. The
bright girl was supposed to grow into a respected businesswoman.
Instead, Ione disappears nightly into the shadowed alley next to
the cathedral with the other prostitutes. Then one night, while
walking through the city fog, Miriam finds Ione broken and beaten.
Miriam is forced to open her home to the stranger whose face she
knows so well and open her life to change she never could have
foretold. Women are missing-some found floating in the river, some
never seen again. The deacon from the cathedral is the first to
help. Soon Miriam's solicitor, Michael, aids her in rejoining
society so they might uncover the evil at work in the corrupt
city...and awakens feelings she had never considered before.
Finally engaged with the world she has so long observed, finally
stirred by love and friendship, Miriam realizes the responsibility
of her gifting. No longer can she just paint what will be. She must
now help Ione find the future she is meant to have...and find her
own along with it.
