About The Book

Teddi has recently been orphaned and she now lives with her kindly, older next door neighbor, Mamie. The times they share and the safety Teddi feels are precious. Then trouble appears in the form of Dora, Mamie's daughter in law. Not only did Mamie not know that Dora was expecting a baby, she didn't even know that her recently dead son had been married. Something seeems out of sync and Teddi is determined to find out why.
