During the terrifying years of Apartheid in South Africa, Shelley Davidows family was a crime. At a time when it was illegal for black and white people to live together, Shelleys social activist parents took in Rosie, an abandoned black threeyearold. Rosie grew up as a beloved daughter and sister in a white household. Against the backdrop of racist laws and everpresent threats of violence, Shelleys parents did all they could to provide a safe, happy home for their five children. But when Rosie was sixteen, devastating truths came to light, shattering the familys understanding of the past.In this haunting memoir, Shelley Davidow unravels the memories of her early life, searching for truth and reconciliation. Shadow Sisters leaves us with a deeper understanding of family love but what if, sometimes, love is not enough?
