520    Nominated for the Edinburgh First Book Award One of The 
       Millions' "Most Anticipated Books of the Year" One of The 
       Guardian's "Best Summer Books" A moving and unexpectedly 
       funny exploration of friendship and family, shame and 
       forgiveness, Michael Donkor's debut audiobook follows 
       three adolescent girls grappling with a shared experience:
       the joys and sorrows of growing up. Belinda knows how to 
       follow the rules. As a housegirl, she has learned the 
       right way to polish water glasses, to wash and fold a 
       hundred handkerchiefs, and to keep a tight lid on memories
       of the village she left behind when she came to 
       Kumasi.Mary is still learning the rules. Eleven-years-old 
       and irrepressible, the young housegirl-in-training is the 
       little sister Belinda never had.Amma has had enough of the
       rules. A straight-A student at her exclusive London school,
       she has always been the pride of her Ghanaian parents--
       until now. Watching their once-confident teenager grow 
       sullen and wayward, they decide that sensible Belinda is 
       the shining example Amma needs.So Belinda must leave Mary 
       behind as she is summoned from Ghana to London, where she 
       tries to impose order on her unsettling new world. As 
       summer turns to autumn, Belinda and Amma are surprised to 
       discover common ground. But when the cracks in their 
       defenses open up, the secrets they have both been holding 
       tightly threaten to seep out. 
520    Three adolescentstwo Ghanaian "housegirls" and the 
       daughter of wealthy immigrantsmust come to terms with 
       themselves and the secrets they have kept from each other.
