The Man in Lonely Land

A delightful little gem of a story! Laine is the main POV character, but we get tantalizing snippets of Claudia's as well. Dorothea is a delightful child, the sort you'd want to spend time getting to know. The majority of the story takes place just before Christmas, so it's a fun little tale for getting in the spirit of gift-giving.
