The center of the world / Jacqueline Sheehan.
"A mother and her adopted daughter embark on a journey of self-discovery to Guatemala after a posthumous letter from her step-father reveals that fifteen-year-old Sophia was not a legally adopted child from Mexico"-- Provided by publisher.
Sofia, a fifteen-year-old soccer star living in New England, believes she was born in Mexico and legally adopted by Kate Malloy. But a posthumous letter from her stepfather tells Sofia a story of civil unrest and bloodshed, death-defying heroism and child-smuggling, harrowing sacrifice and desperate decisions. Knowing Sofia's trust in her is shattered, Kate decides to accompany Sofia back to Guatemala, to confront the damage done by years of dangerous yet necessary deceptions.
