Sally O'Malley made a promise to her daddy before he died. She swore she'd look after her sister, Troo. But like her Granny always said, actions speak louder than words.

I would recommend this to anyone as a light, fast read. I finished it in one day. The ending was pretty out there. And, I got kind of bored with the constant "searching" for the child. But it wasn't terrible, but not terrific either.
