For those of you who read THE WISHING JAR, this is the prequel, although you will be able to read from the start with true enjoyment. Three of the Quinn women, who had possessed the wishing jar, handed down through five generations, no longer feel very strong, faithful, or pure. Abby's husband was killed by a drunk driver. Her mother suffered a stroke. Her daughter is barely coping with the grief from her father's death, and then there are the changes in her mother. The Quinn women no longer believe that wishes come true. The legend of the wishing jar seems to have died off. But has it? Things begin to change. Maybe, just maybe, Abby will find that she has a heart again.
