A thought-provoking tale of survival against the odds.
When Gemma’s Dad is wrongly arrested, she is forced to run away. With her hair cut short, she passes herself off as a boy, Jimmy Scar, and hides out with an eccentric old woman who teaches her self-sufficiency. But who is the old woman, and will she manage to clear her dad’s name? There is a wonderfully happy ending to this story, while leaving the reader with plenty to consider about integrity and who we are.
