Description
Living on the streets is terrifying and exhausting. Grace's only comforts are a steady stream of vodka, and a strange little boy who's following her around.
At nineteen, Grace has already had a child and endured an abusive marriage. But she's also had her baby abducted by her vengeful husband and been framed as a neglectful mother. Even her own parents doubted her version of the story. So she did the only thing that made sense to her--run away.
The streets are unforgiving. Winter is drawing in. And Grace isn't prepared for the harsh realities of survival. At her very bleakest, a Good Samaritan swoops into her life and rescues her. With a roof over her head and food in her stomach, she longs to see her baby again.
But nothing ever comes for free.
