A holy child a lost child an unholy child a dead child a lucky child an unlucky child a found child. Follow the desperate plight of Little O, avenging her slaughtered family. A killer's stream of consciousness. Sacrifice life for love. A child's sacrifice for her fathers life or a child's sacrifice for his greed.
