| Summary: | "For Sally Diamond, people are unpredictable and hard to read. She has always preferred routines to spontaneity and silence to noise. Adopted at age six, she cannot remember any details of her childhood before then. Now forty-three, Sally finds the truth coming into sharp focus when her past becomes headline news: she endured something unthinkable as a child, and now the entire world knows exactly who she is. Suddenly, Sally herself is in the spotlight. People everywhere are digging into her past, and Sally is learning things about herself and her family that she never knew before. Soon a stranger sends her a familiar teddy bear in the mail, but why does he call her Mary? And why is her new neighbor so obsessed with her? Told from the alternating perspectives of Sally in the present and a boy named Peter in the past, this is a novel that confronts the trauma of family secrets and explores one woman's brave decision to define herself and her future."--Page 4 of cover. |
