Mormons--Fiction; Polygamy--Religious aspects--Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints;
Eight-year-old Amy is playing with her half-brother Will when she hears a boulder crash-- the signal for men and their plural wives to hide. She runs into town to make sure her mother heard the warning and finds herself face to face with the government official looking for her parents. She remembers to lie like her parents have taught her and is very pleased with herself, but when she wakes up the next morning she finds her aunt and half-siblings are gone.
