Description
Clutching her pink trunk filled with the relics of a lost childhood, twelve-year-old Jenny steps off a bus in Reno and into the wide-open future. Separated from her brother, Bryan, and passed from caretaker to caretaker, Jenny endures as she at all times has: by following the inner compass of the survivor. But if Bryan chooses a tragic destiny, Jenny should at last confront the secrets and lies that have held her prisoner for years. Embarking on a seek for answers, the adult Jenny discovers that the past can’t be locked away — even if unraveling one’s own anger and pain seems unimaginable. Now, within the warmth of her marriage and within the eyes of her child, Jennifer finds her own miracles. A hardened heart learns to love. A damaged soul finds peace. And life, once merely a matter of survival, becomes wealthy with the joys of in reality living.
