Opis

On the cusp of fifteen, pretty Theresa is the town's sought-after babysitter - adored by children, but also a solitary soul with an already complex understanding of human nature. During this summer, it is her cousin Daisy, a frail little creature with glittery shoes and worrying bruises that don't heal, in whom Theresa invests her greatest love.
