Thanks – we got it. We'll review and follow up if needed.
Matron Rus, stern but kindly head of the orphanage, is vexed. A child is gone. Justice missed roll call-again-and this time, she can't find hide or hair of him on the orphanage grounds.
She desperately wants him to give up his search for the family that abandoned him, to let himself belong here. But raising Justice takes more wisdom than she could ever have imagined.
A wistful story about the importance of family and belonging, for everyone who knows-or can imagine-the complications of raising children.

Liana Brooks is a full time mom and a part-time author who would rather slay dragons than budget the checkbook any day. Alas, Adventuring Hero is not a recognized course of study in American universities. She graduated college with a bachelor’s degree in marine biology, a husband, and no job prospects in her field. To fill the free time, she started writing. Now her books are read all over the world (she says she’s big in Canada), and she’s free to explore the universe one page at a time.
