When her hiding place is no longer safe, fourteen-year-old Nina Topic has no choice. If she is to survive the war in Yugoslavia, she must escape her ravaged country altogether. Without friends or family, she has only one hope -- the name and address of a complete stranger who lives in far-off England, a mysterious old friend of her mother's who, Nina has been promised, will be able to help.

As a stowaway, she begins her dangerous journey, a journey on which she must learn to rely on people she wouldn't otherwise trust, if she is to have any chance of putting the past behind her and starting a new life.
