Moving to New Orleans is supposed to be an adventure for nine-year-old Chanis Bryant and her family, but soon after settling into their new home, Chanis discovers an enchanting secret hidden in her closet-a 13-inch ragdoll with silky, long brown hair that she names Hallie. Instantly smitten, Chanis sees Hallie as the perfect companion, a treasure that brightens her days in the vibrant, yet eerie landscape of the French Quarter.
