How do you hide from the monsters in your own house? Anna Snow, caught in the foster care merry-go-round, is still being shuffled from house to house, but none of them are ever really home. By the time she's ten years old, she's been moved twelve times, three of them happening in under three months. Anna finds a measure of love in one home, but the system yanks her away, simply because her caring foster mother is Black. Anna's also still dealing with the ache of being separated from her brother.
