Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

"Theo is ugly." The girl's whispered voice returned in the
darkness, and sang the chant, "Theo is ugly. Theo is ugly." Theo
Martin's sister waited for his reaction from the backseat of the
family car. Eight-year-old Theo turned away. He looked at his faint
reflection in the car window. "Am I ugly?" he wondered. Suddenly,
there was a truck. There was a scream, an impact, bending metal,
shattered glass, a tree, and blood. Moments after the crash, Theo
found himself caught between two worlds. It was clear to him he was
not heaven-bound with his family, but instead, returning as the
sole survivor. However, when he returned, he brought a secret back
with him. And like a hand in a poker game he would sometimes play,
it was best for him to keep his secret from others, especially when
he witnessed their cruelty and their capacity for destruction. But
Theo of all people should have known not to be fooled by
appearances. Everyone has secrets. There was even a secret in the
mud of a local pond that if discovered, would unravel many other
surprises. So, when a drought ravages the landscape of the
northeast town of Copper Valley, it means the best chance for that
secret to be revealed. Receding water alone will not be enough. It
will remain at the bottom of a murky pond unless Theo Martin,
Copper Valley's angriest recluse, forgives old sins. A soaking rain
is coming from the west. Theo can't wait forever.
