For Maddy, life is all about routine. It has to be, to keep her autistic sister happy and healthy. With just Maddy and her mother as Bee's full-time carers, there's no time in Maddy's life for complications like friends, let alone a boyfriend. Albert has resigned himself to always being a disappointment to his strict father, but Maddy gives him a glimpse of what being part of a functioning family can be like-- and of the tremendous sacrifices people will make for the ones they love. But some things, they are about to discover, are outside of their control. -- adapted from back cover.
