The Clock Tower

The lifelong friendship of three women, Nancy, Nell, and Rebecca, who pledge undying love and aid to one another as inmates in a turn-of-the-century orphanage is sorely tested by danger and death.

Three young women…

They had made a vow which bound their futures with their pasts—and would forever change their destines…

Rebecca—proud and beautiful, and too independent for love.

Nell—so sharp, so clever, and so hungry for affection.

Nancy—spirited, adventurous and unflinchingly loyal, whatever the personal cost.

At the orphanage their childhood friendship had been the only joy in a cruel, uncaring world. In the shadow of the old clock tower they vowed they would never forget… Vowed they would come to each other's aid if ever called—no matter how far the journey or how great the dangers. But they could not imagine to what distant shores or terrifying extremes that childish vow would one day lead them.
