In a novel Publisher's Weekly termed "courageous, thought-provoking," Amelia once ran from a father who had custody to begin a new life and identity in San Francisco, LIVING IN SECRET with her mother...but was eventually found and brought back to her father's home, which soon became abusive.
Almost 14 now, it is time for Amelia to take matters into her own hands. A dad having sex with his own kid is a crime, isn't it? And aren't criminals supposed to be in jail? This time she is determined to make a legal place for herself with her chosen family in California. Maybe it's time for a lot of things about America to change!
