Description
San Francisco, 1962. Six-year-old Olivia is terrified: they told her that from now on, her father’s older daughter—brought from a Chinese village—will live in the house.
“Will she live here instead of me?”
“No, of course! Together with you.”
But the girl can’t overcome her distrust of her new sister. First of all, Guian speaks poor English; second, she tires Olivia with her endless love.
And Guian insists that she can communicate with the spirits of dead people. Isn’t she crazy?
Years pass. The sisters have long been living separately, but Guian, to Olivia’s displeasure, is still endlessly attached to her. Everything changes when the women travel together to China—the homeland of Guian. It is here, in that remote village, that Olivia will discover the true value of feelings of her older sister—and also understand the motives behind many of her actions. The secret slowly becomes clear…
