The Mistresses of Madness

Hexiya is a strange but extraordinary girl, alone and isolated in a town of mystery and hatred. Her mother is locked in an asylum for killing her father; there is something very wrong with the children at her school. All seems bleak until she makes friends with the new girl in her class. Together they try to unravel the inexplicable. Black insanity stalks the streets, and the Stone Man, malice incarnate, wields the madness like a weapon. It is not until the girls grow up to become women of surpassing beauty that they learn who they are - and what they can do to end a terror that is part of a cosmic struggle.
