Author:Nicholas Christopher
It was on a snowy February night in New York that Leo met the girl who would change his life. Veronica.
And so began an extraordinary journey into a world where nothing was quite as it appeared to be, where real time was supernaturally transformed, and events challenged all rational explanation.
Written with startling clarity, Veronica is an exquisite tale of magic and mysticism, mystery and romance, that is quite unlike anything you have ever read before.
I was so impressed with the poetic imagery of this beautiful work, I wanted to press it into everyone's hands... (a) unique and highly recommended mystery.
