Girl, Interrupted meets One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest in this gripping narrative of social injustice, survival, and a young woman determined to find her sister. Sage Winters always knew her sister was a little different even though they were identical twins. They loved the same things and shared a deep understanding, but Rosemary-awake to every emotion, easily moved to joy or tears-seemed to need more protection from the world. Six years after Rosemary's death from pneumonia, Sage, now sixteen, still misses her deeply. Their mother perished in a car crash, and Sage's stepfather, Alan, resents being burdened by a responsibility he never wanted. Yet despite living as near strangers in their Staten Island apartment, Sage is stunned to discover that Alan has kept a shocking secret: Rosemary didn't die. She was committed to Willowbrook State School and has lingered there until just a few days ago, when she went missing. Sage knows little about Willowbrook. It's always been a place shrouded by rumor and mystery. A place local parents threaten to send misbehaving kids. With no idea what to expect, Sage secretly sets out for Willowbrook, determined to find Rosemary. What she learns, once she steps through its doors and is mistakenly believed to be her sister, will change her life in ways she never could imagined... 538 $a Mode of access: World Wide Web. 610 20 $a Willowbrook State School $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Twin sisters $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Reformatories $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Missing children $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Family secrets $v Fiction. 650 0 $a People with mental disabilities $x Institutional care $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Staten Island (New York, N.Y.) $v Fiction. 650 7 $a Recorded books. $2 gsafd 700 1 $a Hallett, Morgan, $e narrator. 710 2 $a hoopla digital. 941 $a 2 952 $l SPPE104 $d 20230325010848.0 952 $l ZYPE837 $d 20230302023815.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=74E0D3FAA2C711ED850ED7DB26ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
