The Last of My Fears mesmerizes readers through poignant images and palpable memories. In youth, the protagonist holds no judgments about her unusual ability to draw favorite people to her by simply thinking of them. She dreams herself into a place of beauty and serenity but finds that the person she holds dearest has other plans. Margaret begins to alter her dreams until she becomes consumed by a darkness she suspected but would not acknowledge. Faced with brutal realities, she stands at a crossroads. She must choose between an easy path to death or a difficult one that might lead to survival. Psychological trap doors and death's secret passages continue until the very end.
