In 1964, at the time the Civil Rights Act had just passed, a young motherless girl accompanies her black nanny to register as a voter. A heated incident forces the young girl to run away with her nanny and also escape from her neglectful father and pursue a clue about the mother she never knew.
Very good book. The characters and language leap off the pages.
Themes touched upon include family conflicts, race, guilt and regret, female bonding and empowerment.
