Newbery Medal–winning author Patricia MacLachlan paints a moving portrait of what it means to be a family, the power of love, and the importance of bringing the truth out into the light, in this beautiful and profound story about adoption. Nora and Ben’s younger sister Birdy loves to keep secrets. She surprises her family more than once: She hides a kitten in her room. She writes a beautiful poem. One day Birdy watches her mother spit into a tube, ready to send it off to find out more about herself and where her family came from. Birdy spits into a tube, too, when no one sees her. But when the test results come back, they are a surprise. Birdy is seemingly not related to Nora and Ben’s parents. But if she is adopted, how could that have happened without the children knowing? Nora and Ben must learn when to keep a secret, and who to go to for help—and eventually, how to solve this secret for the entire family.

This book provides an introduction to secret sharing, a key technology for practical applications and higher-level cryptographic protocols. This survey analyzes existing work, and systematically presents secret sharing protocols for various adversary models. It provides intuitive as well as formal descriptions of the different types of adversaries, including their computational powers and capabilities. In addition, it then offers guidance and support in selecting the appropriate type of protocol for a given application domain, present representative protocols, and provide useful references for further reading and research. This book aims to support software developers and engineers in realizing highly secure cloud-based applications, and also provides an introduction to the field including some relevant technical background for interested students and computer scientists.
