Feathers in the Fire
Author: Catherine Cookson
Synopsis (From B&N): Will power overcome evil, or destroy innocence? Feathers in the Fire plays on the primative human fear of the humanoid monster, depicted by the evil Amos. Amos becomes evil and twisted because of his childhood--his father's refusal to recognize him and the fact that he was almost put to death just after birth.
