About this audiobook

It's a boring, hardscrabble life for three sisters growing up on a Michigan farm in the throes of the Great Depression. But, when young Nellie, digging for pirate treasure, discovers the tiny blue-black hand of a dead baby, rumors begin to fly. Narrated by Nellie and her two older sisters, the story follows the girls as they encounter a patchwork of threatening circumstances and take it upon themselves to solve the mystery.

About the author

Charlotte Whitney grew up on a Michigan farm and often heard stories from her mother, aunts, and grandmother of the troubling years during the Great Depression. She started her writing career with nonfiction, then moved over to romance with I Dream in White. Charlotte lives in Arizona with her husband.

Nancy Peterson, winner of the prestigious Audie Award, is a veteran actor and voice-over artist. Nancy has a penchant for dialects, diving deep into the study of language. Her narration style, summed up by AudioFile magazine, "creates the sense of listening to a play instead of a straightforward reading."
