Pringle has just lost her parents in a terrible accident and she and her brother Gideon flee their cruel aunt and ineffective uncle. They go to Chicago to stay with a friend of their mother's but that doesn't work out so Pringle ends up being a nursemaid to the young mother she met on the train. Secrets are revealed and things are not what they seem. This is all I can say without giving anything away. This was a fun, quick read and I think that it is a good addition to the Dear America books. You feel for Pringle and Gideon and their change in circumstance. no reviews | add a review
