Produktbeschreibung
A mysterious and "thoroughly surprising" family drama about two sisters left homeless by their mother's death, and the lengths the fierce older sister will go to protect her young charge (The New York Times). The hardscrabble Chase women--Mary, Hannah, and their mother, Diane--have been eking out a living running a tiny seaside motel that has been in the family for generations. Eighteen-year-old Mary Chase is a force of nature: passionate, beautiful, and free-spirited. Her much younger sister, Hannah, whom Mary affectionately calls Bunny, is imaginative, her head full of the stories Mary tells to give her a safe emotional place in the middle of their troubled world. When Diane dies in a car accident, Mary discovers that the motel is worth less than the back taxes they owe, and her finely tuned instincts for survival kick in. As the sisters begin a cross-country journey in search of a better life, she will stop at nothing to protect Hannah. But Mary wants to protect herself, too, for the secrets she promised she would never tell--but now may be forced to reveal--hold the weight of unbearable loss. “Captivating¿ (Publishers Weekly) and suspenseful, The Sisters Chase is a ¿striking, heartbreaking story about love, motherhood, and family, with a powerful and elusive protagonist at its heart¿ (Library Journal).
