Book Excerpt

Tante Adeline gave them each a hug and led Clara to the waiting carriage. Jost, one of their coachmen, extended his hand to Clara and Adeline as they boarded. Onkel Martin, a highly-respected judge in Stuttgart, climbed in behind. Dressed in simple driver’s attire, Jost led the horses pulling the conveyance down the drive.

Looking back Clara took in the last glimpses of her childhood, and the place she and her family had made their memories. Those memories had been shattered now. Daniel was absent. The only remaining piece of their dream was tucked safely inside Clara’s body. Oma had encouraged her to dream a new dream, but a future void of Clara’s dream and her Daniel would be no dream at all. I want to watch until it all disappears. I don’t want to watch at all. She wished Daniel would appear at her side and declare all would be okay. But he couldn’t, at least for now. All wasn’t okay. She wasn’t okay.

Clara placed her shaking hand into her Tante’s resting on the seat between them. “Tell me someone cares.”
