Description

At a sleepover, four 6-year old girls are burned beyond recognition. A fifth child is found wandering alone and dazed. She is taken to a hosital, then sent to live with an uncaring family with whom she cannot bond. With no memory of her life before the fire, Alice clings to the hope that she will one day find her parents. Seven years later, Alice meets the Serenas, an Italian immigrant couple who had lost a child in the fire. Alice's resemblance to their Felicia is uncanny, and they believe that Alice is their daughter-but then who is is the child buried in St. Theresa's Cemetery? "The house on Pomegranate Lane stood under a dark sky, emptied, but not alone. Promises had been made among people whom the house trusted, heart-felt words spoken that would be held within its structure, perhaps to be echoed back at others who might enter in the future, lonely lives who would need reminding that sorrow shared is more gratifying than nothing shared."
