(4) YA When her guardians die, Eva searches for the mother who gave her up thirteen years earlier in 1865. The trail leads to Denver, but the mother/daughter reconciliation is far from ideal. Eva's mother, a prostitute, seems hardened by her oppressive economic circumstances and her apparently hopeless future. Despite a pat resolution, this is an unusual glimpse into women's lives.
