Her brother, Victor, is in jail and won't speak to her because she didn't come home for his trial. Her older sister, Faith, once a busy career woman, appears to have lost her independence and ambition, and is instead channeling her energies into holding together a perfect suburban family. Worst of all, their mother, Celeste, is headed toward a breakdown after the death of her husband and the shame of her son's incarceration. Rather than returning to America, Glory decides to stay and try to bring them all together again. It's a tall order given that Glory's life isn't exactly working out according to plan either. A chance reunion with a man she'd known in her teens--the perceptive but elusive Julia--gives her the courage to start questioning why her respectable but obsessively private Nigerian immigrant family is the way it is. But then Glory's questioning unearths a massive secret that shatters the family's fragile peace--and she risks losing everyone she deeply cares about in her pursuit of the truth and a reunited family"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Immigrant families $z London $z London $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Fathers $x Death $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Family secrets $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Large type books. 655 7 $a Domestic fiction. $2 lcgft 941 $a 4 945 $a lpt 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20230425010507.0 952 $l YTPG232 $d 20220802012206.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20220708011200.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20220420010050.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=2348595EC06F11EC8BCEBD203FECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
