God's Child: The Origin of Fear

In 1940, the nation will almost certainly enter the war in Europe, and everyone is worried. One winter's night, in a two-family household deep in Wisconsin farm country, four-year-old Silje Reiersen hears a knock on the door. A stranger wants shelter for the night. The farmers doing chores in the barn allow the man to sleep overnight in the hayloft. The next morning, the man is found brutally murdered. Who is he? Why was he killed? By whom? The sheriff, with none of modern day's forensic tools must solve this crime, and in doing so, changes Silje's life forever.
