Lauren Corvidae-Miracle Child-can cure cancer with a touch, but can she save her family and herself? A girl is born into our modern world with a miracle touch. She can cure the most grievous wounds and illnesses with the brush of a hand, but a world full of faith may not be ready for miraculous proof. The Tragedy of Power is a gritty, violent thriller. It's the first chapter of Lauren's story and also the story of how the world reacts to her confounding existence. While Lauren is seemingly burdened with divine purpose, her young life offers her no relief from the moral complexities her abilities bring her way. She could become a hero, but right now she's just a child under immense pressure. Can she find a way to use her power for good and still be free? Fair warning to the reader: this book is not all action, violence and excitement. Alcoholism, abuse, depression, self-harm, religious persecution, and manipulation are among the demons Lauren faces. You'll find the Tragedy of Power gripping and hard to put down.
