Paperback. Condition: Good. A gifted child singer discovers the ultimate power of dreams. . .and fears.Annalise Rycroft has spent her whole life afraid she'll be lost to obscurity.

Unfortunately, as a young girl, she also has fears that she will have to overcome if she is going to be successful. With a powerful voice able to mesmerize audiences, Anna is paralyzed by stage fright. But that's not her only fear. Her deepest fear is that she'll be lost to obscurity, becoming part of the surplus population spoken of by Ebenezer Scrooge in her favorite book A Christmas Carol. During the 1918 flu epidemic, Anna has a strange experience where characters from her favorite book unlock a hidden part of her past--a past that involves an absent father and missing younger brother.
