I read a review for this book and became interested in reading it myself. The main character Maggie, as a child was left at the doorstep of an orphanage. She becomes best friends with 3 other children, Elizabeth, Lucy and Randolph. First to leave the orphanage, she is shown to the door, but she never forgets her young friends. Through memories we learn the orphanage was abusive which has psychological affects of the main character, and the other. With the help of a PI, Maggie goes in search of her long lost friends. The story is well told, but the more I read it, the more I enjoyed it. Maggie's character became more and more realistic as the story progressed. I could picture myself in her shoes as she walked the streets of LA. Being a humanitarian, I felt her pain. Being pulled in emotionally is my sign of a good book. Well done Ms Schultz.
