Land Without Mirrors

the long version

"Three children on the brink of adolescence are growing up in a community soley inhabited by lepers and their caretakers. Whether a powerful priest, an enigmatic nun, or a troubled doctor will win a dangerous power struggle has grave implications for the the three youths and their yearning for a different life. In a tale that spans nearly fifteen years, and moves from the mystical intrigues of Chacachacare to Cartagena and finally to Port of Spain, surprising twists of fate weave, unravel, and at last, bind the three young people together."--Page 4, cover
