Description

Ginny Richardson's world was shattered when her baby girl, Lucy, born with Down Syndrome, was taken from her. Under pressure from his powerful family, Ginny's husband Ab sent Lucy away to a special school for the "feeble-minded." Two years later, Ginny discovers a series of articles exposing the school as a place where children are neglected and abused. Determined to find out what really happened to her daughter, Ginny sets out on a journey with her six-year-old son in tow. As they drive across state lines, they uncover a shocking truth that sets their course on a heart-racing adventure. With Ab and his domineering father hot on their heels, Ginny must test her own strength and face the world head-on as she fights for the right to keep Lucy. This searing portrait of a mother's love takes readers on a thrilling ride from Massachusetts to the beaches of Atlantic City, through the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia to a roadside mermaid show in Florida.
