To
ten-year-old Jamie, his family has fallen apart because of the loss of
someone he barely remembers: his sister Rose, who died five years ago in
a terrorist bombing. To his father, life is impossible to make sense of
when he lives in a world that could so cruelly take away a ten-year-old
girl. To Rose's surviving fifteen year old twin, Jas, everyday she
lives in Rose's ever present shadow, forever feeling the loss like a
limb, but unable to be seen for herself alone. Told with warmth and
humor, this powerful novel is a sophisticated take on one family's
struggle to make sense of the loss that's torn them apart... and their
discovery of what it means to stay together.
