With the startling emotional immediacy of a fractured family photo album, Jennifer Lauck''s incandescent memoir is the story of an ordinary girl growing up at the turn of the 1970s and the truly extraordinary circumstances of a childhood lost.

But when everything that Jenny had come to rely on begins to crumble, an odyssey of loss, loneliness, and a child''s will to survive takes flight....
