The two had different fathers but shared a Somali mother, from whom Bella's inherited her freewheeling ways. An internationally known fashion photographer, dazzling but aloof, she comes and goes as she pleases, juggling three lovers. But with her teenage niece and nephew effectively orphaned - their mother abandoned them years ago--she feels an unfamiliar surge of protective feeling. Putting her life on hold, she journeys to Nairobi, where the two are in boarding school, uncertain whether she can--or must--come to their rescue. When their mother resurfaces, reasserting her maternal rights and bringing with her a gale of chaos and confusion that mirror the deepening political instability in the region, Bella has to decide how far she will go to obey the call of sisterly responsibility" -- $c from publisher's web site. 650 0 $a Women photographers $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Divorced women $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Nieces $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Nephews $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Kenya $x Social conditions $v Fiction. 655 0 $a Domestic fiction. 941 $a 7 952 $l N2AX314 $d 20210728020216.0 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722043416.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006081900.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20180118030942.0 952 $l TGPD826 $d 20150514024827.0 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20150221025421.0 952 $l CBPF522 $d 20141114012039.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=CA794AAC664B11E4AA87C4C9DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
