"This is a story about a girl, born at the beginning of the 20th century. She grows up in a small river town in upstate New York. One day the mysterious Charles Varnay, an eccentric who dresses in the style of an 18th century dandy, comes to town, his sole companion a remarkably intelligent dog named Rousseau.

in a movie serial he plans to make, called The Goddess of Enlightenment.

Katherine
realizes that he's expecting her to be a part of this, and it worries her."--From publisher.
