About
Pregnant, abandoned by her lover, and cut off from her family, free-spirited and independent Gracie is determined to keep her baby and to raise him on her own. Protecting Elijah Blue from the nuns eager to adopt him out to a "better" home is only Gracie's first battle. It takes a whole community of colourful neighbours and friends--and the dream-wisdom of spirits that protect her--for Gracie to navigate the cruel and impoverishing systems that judge and harass her as a single mom on PEI. She gets through with pride, grit, and humour--but nothing can protect her from her growing son's desire to know his father's identity.
