Book Overview

Zelda Hedgine, nineteen, and beautiful. She runs away from the dictator of Venezuela because he has his dirty eyes on her; and he is her mother's lover. She lands at JFK Airport, penniless, and knowing only a spattering of English. She marries David Ide, an abuser of women with a criminal record, because she is homeless and hungry. She runs away from David, too, and steals his gun. And for a new kind of survival, she lets ardent Facebook Lovers and a Homeland Security Investigator come into her life. And, for a time she enjoys the trysts among them. Then her motto changes: "True Love can be a burden, and I need no man's burden."
