Alice loses her voice the night her house burns down. What she loses next is harder to name. Separated from her sisters and placed in a foster home where everything smells like lavender and order, Alice learns that survival doesn't always look brave-and that silence can be both a shield and a cage. As her family is scattered across hospitals, homes, and systems that promise to help, Alice draws, listens, and holds onto the stars that once kept them together. Silver Curl is a story about grief, foster care, disability, and the quiet ways love survives when nothing else feels steady. A broken constellation is still a constellation.
