The Bean Trees By: Barbara Kingsolver
(pg. 254-272)
They were stopped by the boarder patrol and everything checked out okay until they asked if Turtle was Taylor's daughter or Estevan and Esperanza's. Taylor hesitated so Estevan said she was theirs. The next day they were driving through Oklahoma to the Broken Arrow Lodge. When they got there Irene made a large supper for them and put them up for the night. The next day Esperanza and Estevan decided to go with Taylor to the bar where she got Turtle before going to the safe house. When Taylor found the place they had changed owners and she had lost all leads. So when she couldn't figure anything else to do she decided to go to The Lake O' the Cherokees and they decided to come with her.
Taylor drove all that way only to be devastated that the owners had changed and she had no clue how she would ever get a relative of Turtles to sign her over to her. I wish Taylor would get a lead and be able to legally keep Turtle.
