Opis

After the smooth success of Denise and Myrtle making it past US immigration at the airport a few years earlier, Gena felt overly confident. She was as confident as Usain Bolt when he started his premature celebration of his world-record-breaking win in the 100-meter race at the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing. She therefore devised a big plan to get three people in at the same time: Bunny, Lela, and Faith. Faith was the twelve-year-old daughter of her friend Fay. Fay had heard about Gena's big plan and wanted Gena to do her a favor by delivering Faith to her aunt in Brooklyn. Gena had no fear, and she was ready for action. She was determined to make good on her promise by whatever means necessary. Bunny's passport contained his correct picture, but it had the name and information of someone else who was a citizen of the United States. Gena's plan was now in full swing. She went to Jamaica as she usually did, and she instructed Bunny, Lela, and Faith on what they needed to do. She drilled the new information into them so that their new names would become second nature. When Gena thought that they were ready, she scheduled their make-believe return flight to New York City. The flight went off without a hitch. It was about eight in the evening, and they were now nervously approaching the United States immigration officers. Gena securely held Faith's hand as if she were her daughter, while Bunny and Lela trailed right behind them... *One of the many compelling stories in this novel * Clarion Review At the very least, they have crafted a pleasant, often sweet, and always entertaining novel about an unusual, dynamic woman and the family she built. Mark McLaughlin "It was an interesting read and being from The Bahamas, I was intrigued by the way you slipped us in there. Somewhat accurate but very entertaining."
