Kristen Marsh dreams. By merely clutching something as she falls asleep at night her imagination conjures up a dream pertaining to this object. An amazing gift? To this ten-year-old it's more a curse, even though it may predict an event in the future or explain one from the past.<br> When Kristen visits her grandparents' farm at Christmas, she snuggles at night beneath a patchwork quilt made of family remnants from years ago. Imagine the dreams produced from these scraps of cloth where she learns of a dark family secret, and how – today – she can right a wrong of the past.

“Hey, listen to this, guys. C’mon, it is so cool.”
The chatter on the school bus stopped for the moment. Everyone recognized the piercing voice of little Ryan Marsico, the neighborhood bigmouth of Limestone Way.

“Oh yeah, Mom. I still get shivers thinking about that year. But now that I think about it, there are just so many rooms to play and hide. I always like going there anyway. And Grandpa and Grandma are fun people, not like some of the other grandparents I hear about at school. Katie tells me hers are old, and they smell funny.”
“Now that’s not a very kind thing to say about older people. Sometimes they just can’t help it. It’s part of being old. So you girls must show a little respect.”
