À propos de cet audio
When she was young, Uncle consulted fortune-tellers who told him that Rosa would bring him luck, a treasure big enough to last him all his life. So he's kept her with him. Together, they have traveled from town to town in the highlands of Guatemala, scraping out a living, hoping to find the treasure. Eight years have passed, and Rosa has turned 12. No treasure has been found, and Uncle has almost given up hope. When he turns angry and desperate, danger threatens Rosa from all sides, but especially from Uncle himself.

"Cameron layers her compelling story with vivid descriptions of setting and weaves into the narrative the complexities inherent in the blending of Mayan and latino cultures and religious practices....A well-written and engrossing read." (School Library Journal)
"The taut, chilling suspense and search for riches will keep readers flying through the pages. But it's Cameron's beautiful language and Rosa's larger identity quest that make this novel extraordinary." (Booklist)
"Achieving an almost hypnotic intensity, this taut novel invites readers to sample both savory and bitter flavors of Guatemalan culture as Cameron creates a melting pot of mixed values, religions, and races....Moving and suspenseful." (Publishers Weekly)
