(Aeon Publishing Inc., July 9, 2008)
Robin is only nine. All she's ever wanted is just to be herself. Her parents are dead, and nobody believes what she tells them she saw. Now she's gone to live with relatives she never knew she had. But a local butcher wants to kill her, and she doesn't know why. And then there are those kids who come by and play with her - nice kids, but kind of strange. She doesn't know where they live, or who takes care of them. Then there are the Star People, and this Mr. Lucifer person. She can't understand this bit about elves, and what all this has to do with her, and some prophecy about the Millionth Moon.
