Reviews
"…Sand-Eveland's gritty, riveting second novel…. Mel's restrained narration has a blunt eloquence; her voice is all the more gripping for being understated. Through subtle shifts in tone and perspective, Eveland-Sand movingly shows how Mel's stoicism gives way to the cautious hope that she can actually realize her dreams, not abandon them as her mother has done." - National Post "…this touching picture of a child torn between her need for a stable home and her love for her troubled mother feels deeply authentic … this depiction of wounded people forming healing bonds goes straight to the heart." - Booklist "…a gritty and moving follow-up to her 2008 debut, Dear Toni …. Sand-Eveland doesn't shy away from the reality of life on the streets…." - Quill & Quire "…Cyndi Sand-Eveland has written a highly readable, insightful, and engrossing story…. Mel's voice is powerful…. A Tinfoil Sky is a must-buy for public and school library collections alike…." -Highly Recommended, CM Magazine

Synopsis
Mel and her mother, Cecily, know what it's like to live rough, whether it's on the streets or in the apartment of an abusive man. When Cecily announces that they've had enough and that they are going to go home to her mother's, Mel dreams of security, a comfortable bed and a grandmother's love seem to be about to come true. But some mistakes cannot be easily forgiven or erased. Her grandmother is not what Mel expects and a real home seems beyond her grasp. However, Mel's determination to rise above what fate has dealt is about to change that..., Mel and her mother, Cecily, know what it's like to live rough, whether it's on the streets or in the apartment of an abusive man.When Cecily announces that they've had enough and that they are going to go home to her mother's, Mel dreams of security, a comfortable bed, and a grandmother's love seem to be about to come true. But some mistakes cannot be easily forgiven or erased. Her grandmother is not what Mel expects, and though the local library offers sanctuary, a real home seems beyond her grasp. Mel's determination to rise above what fate has dealt is about to change that. Cyndi Sand-Eveland's work with homeless youth gives her characters an authenticity no reader will forget. Ultimately, a story of hope and acceptance, A Tinfoil Sky is a powerful, can't-putit- down novel.
