And nothing she thought was commonplace will every seem ordinary again. In the snowy fields and above the frozen riverbanks of her hometown, Plain City, Buhlaire’s world is about to come apart. Does her mother think she takes things? Does Aunt Digna not like her? Why won’t anyone talk about her dad? She’s let people tell her anything, and she’s believed it – until one icy day in winter, all at once, nothing makes any sense. She realizes that she’s been living like a sleepwalker. Suddenly, for Buhlaire, growing up is like waking from hibernation. Furthermore, the boy who teases her and makes her life miserable in school follows her everywhere she goes.
