Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Life as an ODonnell is all twelve-year-old Addy knows, and life as an ODonnell means trouble. Tucked away in a gray patch of woods called No-Bob, the ODonnell clan has nothing but a bad reputation. So when Addys mama abandons her on the afternoon of Mr. Frank Russells wedding celebration, nobody is very surprised. A reluctant Mr. Frank and his new wife take Addy in, and Addy does everything she can to prove that at least one ODonnell has promise.

As she finds herself being pulled back into No-Bob and the grips of her ODonnell kin, Addy is faced with the biggest decision of her life. Can she somehow find the courage to do whats right, even if it means betraying one of her own?
