Wow! What a story. This is unlike anything I've read before. It's a memorable book with a very interesting premise. It's not horror or fantasy but something unique unto itself. I really enjoyed the book. It's a haunting and poignant tale of two stolen lives. An American boy snatched from his family by changelings who are a tribe of unaging magical wild children who live in the woods, and replaced with a look alike changeling who himself was stolen a century earlier from his family. The imposter tries his best to be the boy he has replaced though not everyone is fooled. The highlight of the book comes many decades later when their paths finally intersect.
