Saving Ruby King : a novel / Catherine Adel West.
When Ruby King's mother is found murdered in their home in Chicago's South Side, the police dismiss it as another act of violence in a black neighbourhood. But for Ruby, it means she'll be living alone with her violent father. In a relentless quest to save her best friend Ruby, Layla comes to discover the murky loyalties and dark secrets tying their families together for three generations. A crucial pilgrimage through the racially divided landscape of Chicago, tracing the way trauma is passed down through generations and the ways in which communities can come together to create sanctuary.
