Precocious 12-year-old Louisa Mae Cardinal lives in the hectic New York City of 1940 with her family. Then tragedy strikes--and Lou and her younger brother, Oz, must go with their invalid mother to live on their great-grandmother's farm in the Virginia mountains. Suddenly Lou finds herself coming of age in a new landscape, making her first true friend, and experiencing adventures tragic, comic, and audacious. But the forces of greed and justice are about to clash over her new home . . . and as their struggle is played out in a crowded Virginia courtroom, it will determine the future of two children, an entire town, and the mountains they love.

The first book I read by David Baldacci was Absolute Power and I loved it. When the nls sent me this book, I was pleasantly surprised. I was thinking this would be another book filled with mystey, intrigue and syspense and police drama and I could not have been more wrong. This book made me laugh, cry and was so touching until I never wanted to stop the tape from playing. I pulled for the heroine of the story from start to finish and I admired her strength. I highly reccommend this book to anyone who likes books about family and enduring love and sacrifice.
