(3) YA Sisters Gem and Dixie take an impromptu trip into Seattle after their long-absent father returns with promises of improvement...then shadily stashes a backpack full of cash in their room. Their whirlwind trip becomes a relationship test, forcing Gem to consider her future separate from her little sister. Zarr draws complex, troubled relationships--and the flawed yet striving people in them--with care and nuance.
