A fortune of sand [large print] : a novel / Ruta Sepetys.
"Detroit, 1927. A city of smoke and ambition, where glittering wealth conceals a graveyard of secrets. Marjorie Lennox is the youngest daughter of a powerful automotive dynasty, a family known for money, not manners. Artistic, impulsive, and always slightly out of step, Marjorie has long been dismissed by her controlling father and self-absorbed siblings. But when she secretly applies to an exclusive arts program funded by an elusive benefactor, she sees a chance to redefine herself on her own terms. The building is grand. The participants are gifted. But something...is off. The program is uncomfortably restrictive. Doors lock at odd hours. Strange sounds echo through the halls amid whispers that women are disappearing. And the handsome benefactor--mostly absent, yet somehow everywhere--begins to unnerve her. As Marjorie's sense of self begins to slip, so does her grip on the truth. What happens to women who don't fit neatly into a gilded frame?"-- Provided by publisher.
