When she fails to recover from the surprise birth of another child, all three girls are sent to an orphanage. Lana is determined to keep her sisters together but when baby Tina is cruelly taken from them, she must face the possibility of their family being torn apart - perhaps forever...A heartbreakingly lovely and original saga celebrating black history which will appeal to historical fiction readers new and old.
