Publisher's summary

In the fourth book of the Tales of the Scavenger's Daughters series, the fates of three people who've never met converge in profound and unexpected ways.

Mari, the daughter of the town scavenger, grew up knowing hardship, but she never could have anticipated the struggles that now face her as an adult. Feeling alone and isolated, she dreams of a better life. On the other side of town, a frightened little girl named An Ni is forced to live on the streets, but she silently longs for the one thing she's never known - a family. Max, a struggling American photojournalist, arrives in China with only one goal in mind: to face his demons and put an end to his own unbearable suffering.

From the best-selling author of A Thread Unbroken comes an emotional, hope-filled story that offers a fresh glimpse into the life of a remarkable family.

LOVE THIS SERIES!!!!

Not only is this a great read, but Kate Rudd does an excellent narration. The stories are heart warming and the characters are well developed. I highly recommend this book and am looking forward to reading the prequel.

Wonderful series!

I totally enjoyed all the of the books in the series, they were so heart warming though they touched on very serious issues. Also since the fourth book was narrated by the author, her pronouncement of the Chinese words was much better than in the first 3 books, so the audible book finally received the 5 stars the whole series deserved!

deserves more than 5 stars

If I could give this book more than 5 stars I would of. Wonderful story, heart-tugging, lots of emotions. This author has a fantastic way of writing, I have read the whole series and have to say I liked this one the best, but really they all were good. I just couldn't wait to find out what was going to happen. I was sad, I was angry, I was happy while reading this book. I can't say enough about it. So far I have liked everything this author has written. I don't think you will be disappointed. I Love this reader, she is excellent, and if you want to get a real feel for the characters you should listen.

Emotional adventure

I have listened to four of the books in this series. I had a hard time turning them off, but I am glad I was listening in stead of trying to read. I would never been able to read through my tears. I went from one emotion to the next. Just a wonderful family to get to know.
