Biracial foster child Paris goes to live with the Lincoln family in upstate New York when her older brother is sent to a home for "incorrigible" boys. Paris slowly learns to trust the Lincolns, and when her birth mother tries to reunite the family, Paris must make a difficult decision. In this moving tale, Grimes effectively portrays the complexities of family dynamics.
