Description:
<p><i>Eva&#8217;s dad is dead. Her mother isn&#8217;t, but ought to be, says Aunt Mathilde. Time to move on . . . </i></p><p>Moving from Nova Scotia, Eva tries not to care. She&#8217;s already dropped out of school and is washing dishes for a living. Despite her aunt&#8217;s encouragement, she can&#8217;t speak French, the mother tongue of her Acadian family, but Mathilde insists they have to go to Montreal&#8212;now.</p><p>Mathilde has provided reluctant care for her niece for more than a decade, despite the fact that she hates her sister so much, even her name is banned in her presence. Mathilde spends her evenings painting, drinking and writing love letters to a long-gone man, dreaming of what might have been.</p><p>An old photograph of a happy toddler with dimples is taped to the wall by Gaby&#8217;s bunk in the Nova Institute for Women. With her parole hearing weeks away, Gaby doesn&#8217;t have any plans or hopes for a future outside of prison beyond one: to find her daughter.</p><p>Whether it is on the French Shore, Halifax or Montreal, all three women can&#8217;t escape the spectre of Adam, Eva&#8217;s charming, dead father, and the unspoken memories of blood and loss.</p>
