Book Overview

Emma Snow has left everything familiar behind. Eight months earlier, she had lived in a lazy small Midwestern town, but her world changed after a dark secret was exposed. She has been thrown into a world where her wits must be sharp if she is to survive. Fearing for her life, she runs away. Under the cover of night, she stumbles five miles through a field to the police department in town to seek safety, and help. Safe but exhausted during the drive to what will be her next home, she feels a glimmer of hope that fate will be more kind to her. A new school, town and family, life seems to be looking up. She lets her guard down, and then the nightmare begins all over again. Escape, this time, means letting go of hope. She is on her on. She is leaving behind a dark dangerous world and is thrown into a terrifying new life. The Garbage Bag Girl is a story of hope, endurance, and srength, of finding one's pace in the world. It is about the resiliency of the human spirit that carries us through-taking over when we would give up. It is a story of love lost, and of love that finds us when most needed arriving in the most unexpected places and forms.
