Orphan Train - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Rich in detail and epic in scope, Orphan Train by Christina Baker Kline is a

powerful novel of upheaval and resilience, of unexpected friendship, and of the

secrets we carry that keep us from finding out who we are.

Penobscot Indian Molly Ayer is close to "aging out" out of the foster care

system. A community service position helping an elderly woman clean out her

home is the only thing keeping Molly out of juvie and worse...

As she helps Vivian sort through her possessions and memories, Molly

learns that she and Vivian aren't as different as they seem to be. A young

Irish immigrant orphaned in New York City, Vivian was put on a train

to the Midwest with hundreds of other children whose destinies would be

determined by luck and chance.

Molly discovers that she has the power to help Vivian find answers to

mysteries that have haunted her for her entire life - answers that will

ultimately free them both.
