Résumé
A little deaf-mute girl called Alice has a vision in which a lady in shimmering white says she is the immaculate conception. Suddenly Alice can hear and speak again and can perform miracles. Soon the site of the visitation, beneath… an ancient oak tree, has become a shrine - a holy place for thousands of pilgrims. But Alice is no longer the guileless child overwhelmed by her new saintliness. She has become the agent of something corrupt, a vile force that is centuries old. Innocence and evil have become one. Some descriptions of sex and strong language. 1984.
