Summary:
Homeless and alone on the streets, sixteen-year-old Mattie Rollins and her six-year-old sister, Meg, race to discover the fate of their missing mother.
Mattie Rollins plans to ace her advanced high school courses, earn a college scholarship, and create a new life for herself and her family. There's no time for distractions-- no friends, no fun, and especially no boys. But her brilliant plan crumbles when the family becomes homeless and her mother disappears. Mattie and her kid sister Meg are living in a station wagon, trying to live, and looking for the truth behind their mother's disappearance. -- adapted from Amazon.com info.
