That love gives her the courage to confront her fears one by one, until at last she comes face-to-face with the Thing in the attic. There, when Rose lights a candle in the dark, a nightmare beyond her worst imagining comes true, and she learns Mr. Brae has betrayed her. Then the Thing '€“ and the intensifying war '€“ present Rose with a terrible dilemma. Will she have to give up the land she loves in order to save it?
