The Girl Who Fell From the Sky

By Heidi Durrow

Rachel experiences a hideous tragedy, which leads to her moving to live with a grandmother she has met but once. Rachel is the daughter of a white, Danish mother and a black, American G.I. father. The story follows Rachel's adjustment to her new situation and gradually reveals what the tragedy was. She is a strong, young female character, which I always appreciate.

I write short, pithy, book recommendations for family and friends. My best life is comprised of my husband, my boys, my books, a quiet place, a comfortable chair, a cocktail on my side table, and a Vizsla in my lap.
