Snchez, two sisters in Nigeria are separated-one in the lap of luxury, the other fighting for a chance to thrive-in this "unforgettable" (SLJ, starred review) novel where the line between family and foe is blurred. Sisters Cheta and Zam couldn't be more different. Cheta, sharp-tongued and stubborn, never shies away from conflict-either at school or at home, where her mother fires abuse at her.TimidZam escapes most of her mother's anger, skating under the radar and avoiding her sister whenever possible. In a turn of good fortune, Zam is invited to live with her aunt's family in the lap of luxury.Jealous, Cheta also leaves home, but to a harder existence that will drive her to terrible decisions. When the sisters are reunited, Zam alone will recognize just?how?far Cheta has fallen-and Cheta's fate will rest in Zam's hands. Debut authorRimmaOnosetadeftly explores classism, colorism, cycles of abuse, how?loyalty doesn't always come attached to love, and?the messy truths that sometimes, family is not a source ofcomfort,and that morality is all shades of grey. 650 0 $a Sisters $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Wealth $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Kidnapping $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Families $z Nigeria $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Domestic fiction. 650 0 $a Young adult fiction. 651 0 $a Nigeria $v Fiction. 941 $a 1 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20240125011908.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=884F3B06BB4F11EE9799A7D243ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
