Devastated by the sudden disconnection from the man she thought of as her father, and the rejection from her birth father that followed, a young Acamea Deadwiler finds herself on a lonesome path disturbed by the chaos of mental illness, poverty, and violence.
Daddy's Little Stranger delves into the captivating journey of a girl's life, shaped by various forms of neglect. Forced to navigate both tense and tender interactions with her mother's boyfriends, Acamea mourns the idea of a father as much as she does the father figures she once knew. She arms herself with resentment and emotional distance for protection.
Acamea tells her story set against the backdrop of Gary, Indiana-a city deemed "the murder capital of the nation." Here she wrestles with the complexities of human connection as she grows into a woman. This touching narrative reveals her road toward self-discovery as, feeling trapped between the worlds of love and obligation, she attempts to set herself free.
Daddy's Little Stranger is a profound exploration of longing and our capacity to heal hidden wounds.
