Opis

At a sleepover, four 6-year old girls are burned beyond recognition. A fifth child is found wandering alone and dazed. She is taken to a hosital, then sent to live with an uncaring family with whom she cannot bond. With no memory of her life before the fire, Alice clings to the hope that she will one day find her parents. Seven years later, Alice meets the Serenas, an Italian immigrant couple who had lost a child in the fire. Alice's resemblance to their Felicia is uncanny, and they believe that Alice is their daughter-but then who is is the child buried in St. Theresa's Cemetery? With her friend, Matthew, Alice searches for the parents of the dead child to unravel the mystery.
