Sowell, GA deep south where Georgia borders Florida | It is 1956, and thirteen-year-old Sister must raise her three siblings on her own, as her mother, Marnie, has a new boyfriend who just isn't interested in kids. Taking charge of her life, Sister befriends a kindly neighbor named Willa, who appears to be everything a mother should be. But when a respected and powerful man in town notices that Sister is blossoming unsupervised into quite a young woman, trouble starts to brew. Willa soon steps in to intervene, and Sister thinks she may have found salvation. | 192 | Like A Sister-Two of two typed manuscripts without edits | 30 | 5 | 1999 |
