Thirteen-year-old Celina Zagoradniy-Montoya dreams of a different life; a life where her beloved father is alive again, where there's enough food and medicine for her sick brother, and where Mama doesn't have to work so hard. But when an answer to her impoverished family's prayers arrives in a form Celina did not anticipate and doesn't want, the conflicted young girl soon finds herself on a journey of self-discovery, a journey that leads her down a path wrought with fear, pain, and mistrust. Then, just as she is beginning to accept her new life, a stranger from the past appears and reveals the shocking secret Celina's mother has kept for years, a secret that will test Celina's faith and force her to question all she holds dear and leave her changed forever.
