Crossing the Tracks
At fifteen, Iris is a hobo of sorts—no home, no family, no plan. Her mother died when she was six, and her selfish father hires her out as a companion to a country doctor’s elderly mother.

The many facets of what makes a family are illuminated with warmth and charm in this beautifully crafted tale.
