Slices

Slices, a compilation of three Young Adult Novellas, begins with Izzy Kennedy in Colorado, coming to grips with her mother's sudden death and the family secret she never had the chance to reveal; Scout Bell in Missouri, searching for misplaced courage and a way to reconnect with her trophy-winning-mother; and Summer Persimmon Phinne in Iowa, outrunning an uncle determined to institutionalize her dangerously-entertaining, schizophrenic mother.
