Synopsis
How do you keep a secret so huge that it could devastate everyone you care about? For Kate Malloy, the answer is simple- one lie at a time. That's how she has protected her daughter for more than a dozen years, shielding her from a terrible truth. Sofia, a fifteen-year-old soccer star living in New England, believes she was born in Mexico and legally adopted by Kate. But a posthumous letter from her stepfather tells Sofia a different story--one of civil unrest and bloodshed, death-defying heroism and child-smuggling, harrowing sacrifice and desperate decisions. Sofia's trust in her mother is shattered. At last Kate must do what she knows is right--accompany Sofia back to Guatemala, the place where Kate found horror and heartache but also the greatest joy of her life. As mother and daughter confront the damage done by years of dangerous yet necessary deceptions, they discover how much love, hope, and happiness may still remain--if they have the courage to face their past., "In "New York Times" bestselling author Jacqueline Sheehan's evocative and emotionally compelling novel, a mother and her adopted daughter each embark on a journey of self-discovery in the wake of a stunning revelation."

    Avis les plus pertinents

    • Fine.

      The story was compelling, enough so that the excessive metaphoric descriptions were redundant and distracting ("Her skin stripped off her shoulders, then her torso, and fell into a puddle on the floor. She was only blood and bone." [Zombie apocalypse?]) ("A balloon of loneliness that she never fully recognized before burst as if hit by a pin. Tiny stars came out of the balloon and glittered throughout her body." [Where are the unicorn and rainbow?]). I felt as though Sheehan thought the reader wouldn't be able to appreciate the character's feelings, and I prefer the author have some confidence in the reader. Dismiss that minor complaint and read the book!
