Dust

SEVEN-YEAR-OLD MATTHEW DISAPPEARS one day on a walk into Horshoe, a dust bowl farm town in Depression-era Saskatchewan. Other children go missing just as a strange man named Abram Harsich appears in town. He dazzles the townspeople with the promises of a rainmaking machine. Only Matthewâ€™s older brother Robert seems to be able to resist Abramâ€™s spell, and to discover what happened to Matthew and the others.
