Summary:
When FBI agents swarm twelve-year-old Mavis Callahan's downtown Chicago home, her mom goes on the run. With the family's house and bank accounts seized, Mavis's dad takes her and her siblings to seek refuge with his sister just south of rural Somewhere, Illinois--a far cry from the big city lifestyle Mavis is used to. She learns to make new friends and starts a babysitting business to bring in some much-needed cash for the family. But she can't help but wonder, is her mom truly guilty?
