The Secret Miss Rabbit Kept: A Novel

All Sophie’s life, her abandonment as a newborn left her feeling unwanted. Now sixteen years old, she’s convinced she’ll fit right in with all the other ‘toss-aways’ when she takes a job at a nursing home. But lessons in dying aren’t what she had in mind. The work tough, the residents crazy, Sophie is ready to quit. An introduction to Mable Rabbit, the 75-year-old woman who refuses to speak, along with a mysterious warning from a co-worker to ‘just let the poor woman be’, provides her motivation to stay. Determined to break Miss Rabbit’s silence, Sophie gets more than she bargained for when an unexpected gift propels her on a journey through Miss Rabbit’s ugly past and brings her face-to-face with truths she never expected to find.
