The Butterfly Girl: A Novel Audiobook (Free)

Summary:

The Butterfly Girl is a riveting novel that ripples with truth, exploring the depths of love and sacrifice in the face of a past that cannot be left useless and buried.

This past year, Naomi, the investigator with an uncanny ability for finding missing children, made a promise that she’d not take another case until she finds younger sister that has been missing for a long time. Naomi does not have any picture, not a name. All she’s is a hazy memory of a strawberry field during the night, dark dirt under her about The Butterfly Woman: A Book bare ft as she ran for her life.

The search takes her to Portland, Oregon, where scores of homeless children wander the streets like ghosts, looking for money, food, and companionship. The sharp-eyed investigator soon discovers that young girls have been going missing for weeks, many later within the filthy waters of the river. Though she will not need to get involved, Naomi is unable to withstand the pull of kids in need-and the fear she sees in the eye of a twelve-year old gal named Celia. Operating from an abusive stepfather and an addict mother, Celia has only wish in the butterflies-her manuals and guardians in the harmful streets. She sees them all around her, small iridescent wisps of hope that soften the edges of this hard world and illuminate a appreciated storage from her childhood-the Butterfly Museum, a place where everything is certainly safe and nothing at all can hurt her.

As danger creeps nearer, Naomi and Celia find echoes of themselves in a single another, forcing them each to consider the question: Can you still be misplaced even when you’ve been found? But will they find the answer as well late?
