And on the same night, a little golden-haired child—her mother dead in the snow—wanders into his cottage. Silas keeps her. He names her Eppie. She grows, and his heart grows with her. Sixteen years later, the two stories converge: the man who stole the gold returns, and Eppie's real father claims her.
