This is a tremendous account of the endless efforts a 19-year-old single mother pursues over the course of one year to try and provide a stable, safe home for her baby, who was born while residing in a shelter that limits the time a resident can stay there. This is a wonderfully written account of the social justice issues facing a segment of society that is often hidden in the shadows. ~ Linda J.
This is a must-read for anyone seeking to learn more about racism and related issues. Bias against those who we perceive to be speaking with an accent or a non-standard dialect is deeply rooted. An eye-opening book. ~ Jeanne G.
I was delighted to find this book! Good read! Twisted tale, you will never guess the ending. ~ Karen S.
Evie Mead, recently widowed, and her glamorous sister Margot travel to a remote island off the coast of Cornwall to check out the hotel which she may have just inherited. Evie tries to sort out the ownership details without admitting her interest but she is thwarted by an entire cast of quirky characters living on the island or nearby. This cozy will remind readers of Agatha Christie's "And Then There Were None" with lots of plot twists and turns. ~ Mary R.
