Ever since her mother died, Liga has been neglected and sexually abused by her father and ostracized and preyed upon by the people in her town. As a result, she has given birth to one child and is pregnant with another by the age of fifteen. She has no hope for the future until a mysterious force transports her, her daughter, and her unborn child to a heavenly world free of danger and malice. As Liga raises her daughters, Branza and Urdda, the borders guarding their isolated world begin to break down. And one day, Urdda finds her way out. A 2009 Michael L. Printz Honor Book.
