A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Living with her drunken mother in a battered apartment hardly fit for humans, Raven often hears how her birth twelve years ago was a big mistake. Then her mother is arrested, and her Uncle Reuben takes Raven to live with him, her aunt and two cousins. Aunt Clara welcomes her warmly, and for the first time Raven has her own room in a clean, orderly household. In spite of Uncle Reuben's strict rules and cruel comments, as she falls asleep on her own soft pillow she feels in her heart a faint tremor of hope.
But while she knows that Uncle Reuben prefers not to have her there, Raven cannot guess at the shocking secrets lurking beneath the family's ordinary facade...or anticipate the painful humiliation that will make her wish for her old life with Mama again...
