After running away from her fifth foster home, Holly, a twelve-year-old orphan, travels across the country, keeping a journal of her experiences and struggle to survive.
Holly was first introduced in the book Sammy Keyes and the Sisters of Mercy. In that book, she is a secondary character, but she wouldn't let the author go until her own story was told. This is a wonderful book as we travel with Holly from one side of the country to another, and from being angry and bitter to beginning to feel hope and optimism.
