The same is true of the rest of the Tivot clan. Nicole&rsquos husband, Marc, and their children all seem to be caught in an unending struggle against each other for love and acceptance. Only when Rosie is sent to care for Nicole&rsquos nowelderly guardian &ndash the storyteller of the family&rsquos secrets &ndash does she finally discover the truth.
