Three orphans risk everything to escape their evil aunt, but is living on their own putting them in worse danger?
Life with evil Aunt Olga has gone from very bad to worse for eleven-year-old Hannah and her brothers, so now Hannah must make a tough decision. She knows she can't ask for help. Olga has continually warned them that if they dare complain about her, they will be put in separate foster homes. Above all else, they have to stay together. But Hannah is protective of her younger brothers and can't bear to see them hurt another day. The only way out is to run!
They pack up their meager belongings, more food than Olga ever allowed them, and run away to a world of freedom and adventure. But with only each other to rely on, can they survive all the dangers ahead?
