Vera has grown up straddling two worlds - the madam's alluring sphere, replete with tickets to the opera, surly henchmen, and scant morality, and the violent, debt ridden domestic life of the family paid to raise her. On the morning of the great quake, Vera's worlds collide. As the shattered city burns and looters vie with the injured, orphaned, and starving, Vera and her guileless sister, Pie, are cast adrift. Vera disregards societal norms and prejudices and begins to imagine a new kind of life. She collaborates with Tan, her former rival, and forges an unlikely family of survivors. Together they navigate their way beyond disaster."--Publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Copy Status   Hawaii Kai Public Library Adult Fiction Edgarian   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Fiction Edgarian   Missing Inventory Add Copy to MyList CLOSED TEMPORARILY: Honokaa Public Library Adult Fiction EDGARIAN Historical Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Adult Fiction Edgarian   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Fiction Edgarian   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Koloa P/S Library Adult Fiction Edgarian   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Lihue Public Library Adult Fiction Edgarian   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library Adult Fiction Edgarian   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Fiction Edgarian   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Pahoa P/S Library Adult Fiction Edgarian   Checked In Add Copy to MyList More Results: 1 2 Next
