«Une famille pour Kathy» is the novel by Henry Denker published by France Loisirs (363 pages, in French).
After being widowed, Grace Cameron discovers she has contracted AIDS and has little time left to find a home for Kathy, her twelve-year-old daughter. The girl's custody pits her uncle Harry, who wants to control her, against the people Kathy would choose. Mother and daughter live those months with courage while seeking a way out.
Originally published as «A Place for Kathy» in 1997; French translation by Dominique Wattwiller.
