(2) 4-6 When a desperate-seeming man forces his way into their house Annie and her brother Rew are terrified, but Gran is unmoved: the man is her son, and the children's father, whom they thought to be long dead. Despite herself, Annie is intrigued by her father, and this ambivalence is what makes Gewirtz's story so compelling as the characters navigate an ever-shifting notion of family.
