It's 1967, and Manhattan is full of "missing girls"-runaways looking for freedom. In nearby Queens, Carrie Schmidt feels like she's missing, too-missing from her own life. Ever since her mother died four years ago, it's as if she's been sleepwalking. Then Carrie meets Mona, who knows the secret of "lucid dreaming," being awake inside your dreams. Their friendship is Carrie's chance to find her mother-and wake up to her future.

A gripping tale of one young girl's struggle to survive during the Holocaust. When her mother is killed by the Gestapo, a Jewish girl named Lola is sent into hiding. At first, Lola secretly lives in the home of a Ukrainian woman. But when someone threatens to expose her to the Nazis, Lola must flee again, this time hiding with another family in a dirt hole beneath a barn. Struggling against cold and hunger, the hidden family lives under the constant threat of discovery. Lola has lost everything--her home and her family. All she has left is one article of clothing, a dress lovingly embroidered by her mother. Will Lola ever find safety--or freedom?
