Shining Star

They followed a newborn star
Seeking a child in a stable
Weary camels travelled far
Carrying all they were able
Unsuitable gifts for the poor
Shining and scented of death
Mages at the humble door
Of a child who drew his first breath

As summer arrives in June 1876 in Wolf’s Landing, Tennessee, the days promise to be hot and miserable. Schoolteacher Hattie has locked the schoolhouse and notices her sister Caddie’s mark on the big key – an eight-pointed star. It had not been there before. Years earlier, her sister had been murdered.
