Upon high school graduation, Rachel accepts a job as live-in caregiver for a brain-damaged woman. Raiding Grace's personal letters and notes, Rachel pieces together the puzzle of Grace's past life; simultaneously, Rachel begins to build a life of her own. Australian author Brugman's tale of two women is touching, funny, and fresh.
