What compels someone to attempt to cross a brutal and unforgiving desert in search of a better life?

In this deeply moving novel, a Midwest girl bears witness to-and then becomes entangled in-the struggles of two undocumented brothers caught on opposite sides of the US/Mexico border.

Fourteen-year-old Hilde, raised on a family farm in Wisconsin, is dragged to the northern California coastal town of Pescadero by a mother fleeing a bad marriage.

But Pescadero is worlds away from the conservative Midwest, and Hilde finds herself adrift in a community where all the attitudes she absorbed growing up seem oddly off-key.
