She brushed at the spark, but it had caught the lace and was burning her neck. Another spark landed in her hair. 'Momma,' she screamed, as she frantically brushed at the flames that seemed to be crawling up her body.An accident that changes Lily’s life. But there are other changes affecting the family that are coming. Lily’s uncle George has suggested to her mother Elizabeth that the family make a new start in Canada.
