For two years Sarah Jacob was the Welsh Fasting Girl who 'lived on air'. Did she really take neither food or drink in that time? Although Sarah lived in remote rural Carmarthenshire in the 1860s she became a national sensation through the newspapers - people from all over Britain traveled to see this miraculous young girl, leaving gifts of money... Was she really miraculous? Sarah's case stood on the dividing line between belief and the evolving rationalism of science, and shortly after a team of nurses arrived from London, she died. After her death, her parents were sentenced to hard labour for her starvation. This fascinating new book unravels the many strands of the Sarah Jacob mystery - medical, spiritual, religious, legal, political, ethical, social, family - and its place in mid-Victorian Britain at the height of Empire. Author Stephen Wade provides new insight into what was a 'sensation' but also an all too human story.

Welcome back to New Hope and Hell. Did you enjoy the last ride? The sinful underbelly in New Hope is starting to swell and is ready to burst, while tensions in Hell are boiling to a head. What could Jacob’s prophetic nightmares possibly signify? And how outside of Hell could they be so detailed― seeing horrific faces that he’d never met before? Perhaps New Hope and Hell are more closely connected than anyone realizes. But why? The number of random beatings for retaliation in Hell continues to escalate, but how much more abuse can the Lost Souls endure? The Dark Lord feels confident that a rebellion can be quickly squashed because He possesses a secret cache of weaponry that is even more powerful than the Demonic telepathic powers wielded by the Campbells. But the Unholy Ruler secretly harbors a more profound hidden fear, a fear of the past. Who is the mysterious Driftwood Blackheart, what is his connection to Eden and its protected background, and why is the Second Leg of Hell terrified of the possibility that the Once Man may one day return?
