"Grief has a way of cementing our feet to the ground wherever we're standing when it hits us. It takes hard work to get unstuck from that place, but we have to be willing to dig in." In this coming of age tale, Mbinguni weaves a narrative about Hannah "Mouse" Maynard and her transformation from a shy, quiet, girl into a strong and assertive woman. At 7-years-old, Mouse encounters a tragedy that forces her to face the evils of the world and leave behind everything she's ever known. With their home destroyed, Mouse and her father travel from Maplewood, Georgia to Virginia and Michigan confronting their past as they move into their future. Mouse encounters women along the way who help her find the strength to survive and thrive against all she's seen. Through these bonds and their fierce protection, Mouse not only finds her voice but a renewed sense of hope.
