It's safer to keep her mouth shut and stay out of sight. Struggling to raise her little brother, Donal, eight-year-old Wavy is the only responsible adult around. Obsessed with the constellations, she finds peace in the starry night sky above the fields behind her house, until one night her star gazing causes an accident. After witnessing his motorcycle wreck, she forms an unusual friendship with one of her father's thugs, Kellen, a tattooed ex-con with a heart of gold. By the time Wavy is a teenager, her relationship with Kellen is the only tender thing in a brutal world of addicts and debauchery. When tragedy rips Wavy's family apart, a well-meaning aunt steps in, and what is beautiful to Wavy looks ugly under the scrutiny of the outside world. Kellen may not be innocent, but he is the fixed point in Wavy and Donal's chaotic universe. Instead of playing it safe, Wavy has to learn to fight for Kellen, for her brother, and for herself"--cProvided by publisher. 0aChildren of drug addictsvFiction.91249 7aFICTION / Literary.2bisacsh9469 7aFICTION / Coming of Age.2bisacsh91250 0aDomestic fiction.9821 a7bcbccorignewd1eecipf20gy-gencatlg 2ddccBOOK 2ddc4070aABELJbABELJcAFd2017-05-10g25.99l8m0oGREEp36728r2024-06-29s2024-05-31w2017-05-10yBOOK
