    About this ebook

    Ari Dunsmore’s new little adopted-sister is sick. The 7-year-old has been on a kind of hunger strike and lost a great deal of weight since she’s been with her new family. The teen has seen prayer fail, medicine fail, and now she’s willing to risk the wrath of not only her mega-preacher father, but God Himself, to try magic. She’s in a mighty big hurry and does the first thing that pops into her head with results she never could have imagined.
