Summary

Some families leave you money. Others leave you scars. 
Based on a true story, Paper Roses is a sweeping, emotionally resonant novel from the sister of Traciii Show Hutsona--the New York Times-featured serial con artist-about family secrets, inherited trauma, and the long shadow of betrayal. 
When Abigail Jones learns of her sister Nikki's third arrest, she's pulled into a spiral of questions: Was it fate, family, or something buried even deeper? As Abigail begins to piece together the past, she uncovers a trail of silence and survival that stretches across continents and generations. 
From a 1940s Moroccan household where a young maid bears witness to the origins of a generational wound, to the sun-washed suburbs of 1970s California, and finally to 2023-told through podcast transcripts, court documents, and splintered memory-Paper Roses follows Abigail's search for answers, her confrontation with the sister she thought she knew, and her reckoning with a legacy neither of them could escape. 
A haunting story of loyalty and the cost of breaking free, Paper Roses is perfect for readers of The Vanishing Half, Little Fires Everywhere, and The Paper Palace.
