"Edie never thought her parents would keep secrets from her, but that was before she discovered the box in her attic – the box filled with photos of a woman bearing her name and wearing her face. But Edie’s mom was an orphan who never knew her family … right? Edie is of Suquamish and Duwamish ancestry, and the family secret is linked to a shameful chapter of U.S. history. Christine Day’s book encompasses a mystery that will keep kids guessing until the gut-wrenching reveal. Expect this one to keep them glued to the pages. (For ages 8 to 12)"
