I
watched
my
father
run
forward
in
his
snowshoes
the
way
one
sometimes
does
in
dreams,
unable
to
make
the
legs
move
fast
enough.
I
ran
to
the
place
where
he
knelt.
I
looked
down
into
the
sleeping
bag.
A
tiny
face
gazed
up
at
me,
the
eyes
wide
despite
their
many
folds.
The
baby
was
wrapped
in
a
bloody
towel,
and
its
lips
were
blue.' The
events
of
a
December
afternoon
on
which
a
father
and
his
daughter
find
an
abandoned
infant
in
the
snow
will
forever
alter
eleven-year-old
Nicky
Dillon's
understanding
of
the
world
which
she
is
about
to
enter
and
the
adults
who
inhabit
it:
a
father
who
has
taken
great
pains
to
remove
himself
from
society
in
order
to
put
behind
him
an
unthinkable
tragedy;
a
young
woman
who
must
live
with
the
consequences
of
the
terrible
choices
she
has
made;
and
a
detective
whose
cleverness
is
superseded
only
by
his
sense
of
justice.
Written
from
the
point
of
view
of
thirty-year-old
Nicky
as
she
recalls
the
vivid
images
of
that
fateful
December,
hers
is
a
tale
of
love
and
courage,
of
tragedy
and
redemption,
and
of
the
ways
in
which
the
human
heart
always
seeks
to
heal itself.
