Prolog
Tracy Blue Jay Azaro was an eighteen-year-old girl with an Italian father and a Native American mother from the Cherokee tribe. She had black hair that hung down to her waist, a dark complexion and dark brown eyes that always seemed to have a bright spark of mischief in them. Because her features were slightly broader, her mother and insisted on an Indian name and that is why her middle name is Blue Jay instead of another name.
She had an older brother whose name was Matthias Antonio Azaro. He was twenty-two years old and had a very cheerful atmosphere around him. He had gone to a collage to study architecture, but had dropped out after their parents had been killed in a car accident so he could support Tracy while she finished high school. Every morning he would make breakfast for her, drop her off at the school, and go to his job at a construction site and then pick her up from school in the afternoon and make supper for them both.
When Tracy got her driver's license, Matthias bought her a car. Two weeks after he had done that for her, he was killed in a construction accident when a steel beam had fallen and hit his head. He was in a coma for a day before breathing his last.
This story follows Tracy shortly after her brother's death and what happens to change her life forever.
