From New York Times bestselling author Susan Wiggs, a wrenching but life-affirming novel based on a true story of survival, friendship, and redemption. Set in the turbulent Vietnam era in the All-American city of Buffalo, New York, six girls are condemned to forced labor in the laundry of a Catholic reform school.
In 1968 we meet six teens confined at the Good Shepherd-a dark and secretive institution controlled by Sisters of Charity nuns-locked awaymerely for being gay, pregnant, or simply unruly.
Mairin- free-spirited daughter of Irish immigrants, committed to keep her safe from her stepfather.
Angela-denounced for her attraction to girls, sent to the nuns for reform, but instead found herself the victim of a predator.
Helen-the daughter of intellectuals detained in Communist China, she saw her "temporary" stay at the Good Shepherd stretch into years.
Odessa-caught up in a police dragnet over a racial incident, she found the physical and mental toughness to endure her sentence.
Denise-sentenced for brawling in a foster home, she dared to dream of a better life.
Janice-deeply insecure, she couldn't decide where her loyalty lay-except when it came to her friend Kay, who would never outgrow her childlike dependency.
Sister Bernadette-rescued from a dreadful childhood, she owed her loyalty to the Sisters of Charity even as her conscience weighed on her.
Wayward Girls is a haunting but thrilling tale of hope, solidarity, and the enduring strength of young women who find the courage to break free and find redemption...and justice.
