At the turn of the last century, 12Β year-old Ellen Copley embarks on a journey from Scotland to America with her father. They are hoping to leave the sooty rail yards of Glasgow behind, and start again in a small Vermont village with Ellen's aunt and uncle.

Soon she realizes she will have some important decisions to make about just who she wants to be as she struggles to carve a place for herself in a changing and increasingly turbulent world.
