- Summary
- "When Indigo Rosemartin leaves behind her beloved only child, Louisa, and her homeland of Jamaica to earn a better wage in America, she has no idea just how final her good-bye will be. In Chicago she keeps house for Professor Silver, whose three daughters come to depend on her in the wake of their parents' crumbling marriage. But when Indigo receives devastating news that is every mother's worst nightmare, she finds herself without purpose in a wintry, unfamiliar world - her heart hardened even against the girls she has cared for second only to her own." "Stricken, Indigo drifts through her days until she discovers Brother Man's, a private gambling club run by a charismatic fellow Jamaican. In this smoky, lively place that recalls her island home, Indigo numbs her pain at the roulette table in the company of other lost souls. But as her hunger for diversion threatens to consume her life, she realizes that only by facing down her despair will she ever again feel love."--BOOK JACKET.
