When fourteen-year-olds Wren and Darra meet at a Michigan summer camp, both are overwhelmed by memories from six years earlier when Darra's father stole a car, unaware that Wren was hiding in the back. Years after Darra Monson's father stole a minivan with Wren Abbott hiding in the back, the girls come face to face at summer camp, and together they try to work through what happened to them and the impact it had on their lives.

In this extraordinary debut novel for young adults, Frost stretches the boundaries of traditional poetic forms as she weaves together the stories of seven teenagers who courageously struggle to hold their lives together and overcome their difficulties.
