'Puts a human face to the story of undocumented youth desperately
seeking their dreams in America. This one's going to haunt me for a
long time' Jodi Picoult A beautiful and heartrending novel about
motherhood, resilience, and faith-a ripped-from-the-headlines story
of two families on both sides of the American border. Carla is a
strong-willed young girl who's had to grow up fast, acting as
caretaker to her six-year-old brother Junior. Years ago, her mother
left the family behind in Honduras to make the arduous, illegal
journey to Texas. But when Carla's grandmother dies and violence in
the city escalates, Carla takes fate into her own hands-and with
Junior, she joins the thousands of children making their way across
Mexico to America, facing great peril for the chance at a better
life. Alice and her husband, Jake, own a barbecue restaurant in
Austin, Texas. Hardworking and popular in their community, they
have a loving marriage and thriving business, but Alice still feels
that something is missing, lying just beyond reach.
