Who would want to adopt eleven-year-old Maud Flynn? She is plain and feisty, and anyway, the ladies visiting the Asylum-the aging Hawthorne sisters-are looking for a younger girl. As it happens, Hyacinth Hawthorne thinks Maud is perfect: "Look how tiny she is, Judith. And she has a lovely singing voice." Maud's good fortune turns out to be more complicated than it seems: She is just the prop the Hawthornes need for their strange and secret family business. A 2007 Judy Lopez Honor Book.
