ward,
Dr.
Zoe
Goldman
is
stumped
when

A
young
African
American
girl,
found
wandering
the
streets
of
Buffalo
in
a
catatonic
state,
is
brought
in
by
police.
No

has
come

and
all
leads
have
been
exhausted,
so
Zoe's
treatment
is
the
last
hope

the
girl's
identity.
When drugs prove ineffective and medical science seems to be failing, Zoe takes matters into her own hands to track down Jane Doe's family and piece together their checkered history. As she unearths their secrets, she finds that monsters hide where they are least expected. And now she must solve the mystery before it is too late. Because someone wants to make sure this young girl never remembers.
The Girl Without a Nameis a powerful novel of memory and forgetting, of unexpected friendship and understanding...and of the secrets we protect no matter the consequences.

"Sandra

smart,
heartbreakingly
vulnerable,
and
laugh-out-loud
funny.

You
