The story of eleven-year-old Cammy, who must come to grips with the sudden death of her cousin and rival, Patty Ann. “Another wise, beautifully written book from this well-established master.”–Kirkus
Being cousins doesn’t mean you’ll be friends….
Cammy loves her family — except for her cousin Patty Ann. Though she knows she shouldn’t feel this way, she can’t help it. Patty Ann is too perfect to like, too perfect to be a friend.
Then one day something terrible happens, something that can’t be changed. That’s when Cammy learns the truth about Patty Ann, and about family love — and forgiveness.
