Every purchase helps someone affected by leprosy
When news reaches Kansas that her beloved sister has died, overnight Aunt Em becomes a mother to 7-year-old Dorothy. But Emily doubts her ability to fill her sister’s shoes; her life on the barren Kansas prairies is no place for a child. On the unforgiving plains, Emily's courage is endlessly tested. The prolonged drought and relentless dust storms threaten to destroy everything – including her home and her marriage. Can Emily overcome her grief and let Dorothy heal her heart?
From the promise of Chicago in the 1920s to the harsh beauty of the Kansas prairie during the dust bowl of the 1930s, this is a story of family, duty, love and one woman’s journey of self-discovery.
An enchanting, historical novel, perfect for fans of Wicked.

Recent developments in genotyping strains of leprosy have improved accuracy of finding the source of transmission, meaning tracking and tracing of cases can be much more effective. There is also a PCR test for leprosy being developed which would be a game changer in faster and more accurate diagnosis of leprosy.
