Description
Maya is in trouble. She's an alcoholic, an addict and is deeply involved with a criminal gang. But how did things go so wrong? Even if her parents didn't care about her, Maya always knew she could rely on her grandmother Nini's tough love and the gentle comfort of her grandfather, Popo.
Hunted by both the police and her old associates, Maya, with Nini's help, flees to the remote island of Chiloรฉ, off the coast of her grandmother's native Chile. There, safe for a while, Maya is compelled to write her story of how she came to find herself far from her family in California, lost in the criminal underworld of Las Vegas. Basking in the warmth of the Chiloรฉ community, Maya begins to heal. But can she move beyond her pain, find forgiveness and learn to live with the scars of the past? ISBN:9780007482870
