(2) YA In 1913, Hazel is sent to live on her grandparents' Caribbean plantation. There she discovers secrets about the entanglement of her family's wealth with slavery. Through dense, piquant prose, Hearn provides an arresting evocation of a time and place of great upheaval. Hazel--bright, naive, passionate--is a character well worth getting to know.
