Amaya Lin has few memories of the years before she turned eighteen. Now in her forties, she has compensated by carefully cultivating a satisfying life as a wife, mother, and business professional. Her husband's law practice is on the brink of major success; her neurodiverse son has grown into an independent adult; and she has come to terms with her aunt's dementia. This sense of order is disrupted, however, when she encounters a stranger who claims to have an impossible connection, launching Amaya on a tumultuous journey into the past. Using three interwoven narratives spanning the United States, Trinidad, and Jamaica, Carol Mitchell's debut gives voice to an immigrant woman forced to confront her repressed memories of violent trauma. Only then can she discover what she is capable of when it comes to self-preservation and the protection of her family." -- Jacket flap. 650 0 $a Women $v Fiction. $9 82588 650 0 $a Family secrets $v Fiction. $9 111034 650 0 $a Immigrants $v Fiction. $9 87080 941 $a 2 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20240104010639.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20230912012003.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=7761DFCE513211EE8C3E61A62AECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
