- Summary
- Demerara Gold is a coming-of-age-story of the unconquerable spirit of a seven-year old girl left in the clutches of her two grandmothers in the Caribbean after her parents suddenly get visas to the USA. Ingrid cherishes a ring of Demerara gold given to her as a token of her parents promise to return. When she finally rejoins her parents in America five years later, she finds her father railing at "this blasted life", her mother wrestling with her disappointments and a life burdened by a family secret. -- Back cover
