| 內容簡介： |
''I watched my father run forward in his snowshoes the way one
sometimes does in dreams, unable to make the legs move fast enough.
I ran to the place where he knelt. I looked down into the sleeping
bag. A tiny face gazed up at me, the eyes wide despite their many
folds. The baby was wrapped in a bloody towel, and its lips were
blue.'' The events of a December afternoon on which a father and his
daughter find an abandoned infant in the snow will forever alter
eleven-year-old Nicky Dillon''s understanding of the world which she
is about to enter and the adults who inhabit it: a father who has
taken great pains to remove himself from society in order to put
behind him an unthinkable tragedy; a young woman who must live with
the consequences of the terrible choices she has made; and a
detective whose cleverness is superseded only by his sense of
justice. Written from the point of view of thirty-year-old Nicky as
she recalls the vivid images of that fateful December, hers is a
tale of love and courage, of tragedy and redemption, and of the
ways in which the human heart always seeks to heal itself.
