COMMENTS: I found this story very engaging and a quick read. Ginny was a rising star in the TV news industry in LA. She was married to the anchorman and they had a 3-yr old boy. Returning home from a Christmas party they were in a fatal car accident, Ginny survived but her husband and son did not. She survived by leaving her home and work and becoming involved in SOS/HR -- a private foundation centered in NY that sent workers all over the globe to assist w/ human rights issues. Many of her assignments were to Afghanistan, Syria -- far from safe areas. She felt she had nothing to live for and putting herself in danger was not important After 3 yrs she returned to NY at Christmas time and was very depressed on the anniversary of her husband & son's death. She was about to dive into the East River when she noticed a child entering a shed …. This was the pivotal moment for her. The child was Blue a homeless 13-yr-old boy. They were both in need of someone to care for … Blue has a lot of obstacles to overcome and Ginny is very persistent. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
When her husband and son are killed in a car accident days before Christmas, Ginny Carter tries to avoid her grief by becoming involved in human rights work in New York.
"Ginny Carter era una periodista famosa, una mujer realizada y feliz y, por encima de todo, la madre orgullosa de un niño de tres años. Hoy es la única superviviente de un accidente que le destrozó la vida. Ginny dejó el trabajo, se alejó de sus amigos y vendió sus posesiones para viajar a los lugares más peligrosos del planeta, y ayudar a mujeres y niños víctimas silenciosas de la guerra. Durante el aniversario de aquel trágico accidente, Ginny conoce a Blue Williams, un chico de trece años que vive en la calle. La mujer trata de acercarse al chaval y, poco a poco, surge el cariño, la complicidad y la sensación de amparo que ambos han perdido. Blue le ofrece a Ginny una mezcla de ingenuidad y sabiduría y ella, respeto, hasta que un nuevo revés ensombrece sus esperanzas en el futuro."--Back cover.
