Meet the characters of THE LITTLE DOG LAUGHED:
Felicity
Felicity goes from rags to riches in what seems an instant, and it isn't long before it goes to her head. She is willing to do whatever it takes to erase her old life and create a new and thriving one, even if it means pretending her son doesn't exist.
Isaac
Raised in isolation and imprisonment, Isaac grows up with only his stuffed animals as companions...and their dire opposite personalities are manifested from his own. The good and bad sides of Isaac clash until the bad becomes stronger, and then Isaac suddenly is not himself anymore...if he ever had his own sense of self.
Conrad Wellington the III
Felicity's husband, son and heir to the Wellington estate and properties. He is a kind and loving man who never questions spoiling Felicity and making sure she is happy, except when he tells her he is not interested in becoming a father.
Conrad Wellington the II and Olivia Wellington
The state's wealthiest family, who are loved and respected members of the community and are accepted for both who--and what-- they are. They hold blood drives for their nourishment and graciously pay their donors, always giving to the community that gives to them.
Margaret
Margaret is a servant in the Wellington household who is put up to a special task when Felicity moves in: Hide her son in an upstairs room and care for him in secret. Margaret's job only gets more difficult when Felicity reveals why she plans to keep him around, and must remain loyal to all members of the family she serves.
Uncle Don and Aunt Betty
Felicity's aunt and uncle who take her in and support her after her own parents threw her out. They are happy for Felicity finding someone and settling down, and keep in touch with her throughout the years, but some things don't seem to add up...
