This was a really good read. The can't put down until you're done type. It's about this girl and boy who are abducted by their father and taken to live in a "sanctuary" in New Mexico. Until they are in their 20's -- they never see anyone or leave the house. They are told their mother is dead, and one day the boy, Jimmy, leaves. He writes to his sister Dorothea and tells her all the things they have missed -- but then his letters stop. Then the father gets ill and Dorothea decides she must find her brother and bring him home. She only has the last address on an envelope, and she gets on a bus and heads there. The way the story is written is great -- interweaving everyone's points of view, going from past to present ... EXCELLENT READ!
