Eight years ago, Poke Rafferty, an American travel writer, and his Thai wife, Rose, adopted a Bangkok street child named Miaow, forming an unconventional intercultural family. That family has weathered extreme challenges-each of its three members carried the scars of a painful and dangerous history-but has stuck together with tenacity and love (and a little help from some friends). Now that family is in jeopardy: the birth of Poke and Rose's newborn son has littered their small apartment with emotional land mines, forcing Poke to question his identity as a dad and Miaow to question her identity as a daughter.

Engaged in the search for the missing American, Poke is caught completely off-guard when someone he thought was gone forever resurfaces-and she has the power to tear the Raffertys apart.Hinweis: Dieser Artikel kann nur an eine deutsche Lieferadresse ausgeliefert werden.
