The Dickinsons are always the talk of the town. And not in a good way. They have been called thieves, addicts and maybe even pirates --- the town loves to talk. Agnes has always believed what they say about the Dickinsons, never giving it another thought. Until she meets Bo Dickinson, a fellow classmate. Bo is not like what they say: she is adventurous, polite and, above all, accepts Agnes for who she is. Agnes has lived a sheltered life under the roof of her overbearing parents, but when Bo calls Agnes in the middle of the night to leave town forever, there is no hesitation. Read More TeaserBo Dickinson is a girl with a wild reputation, a deadbeat dad, and a mama who's not exactly sober most of the time. Agnes Atwood, on the other hand, has never gone on a date, never even stayed out past ten, and never broken any of her parents' overbearing rules. Despite everything, Bo and Agnes become best friends. So when Bo shows up in the middle of the night, with police sirens wailing in the distance, desperate to get out of town, Agnes doesn't hesitate to take off with her.

About the BookBo Dickinson is a girl with a wild reputation, a deadbeat dad, and a mama who's not exactly sober most of the time. Everyone in town knows the Dickinsons are a bad lot, but Bo doesn't care what anyone thinks. Agnes Atwood has never gone on a date, never even stayed out past ten, and never broken any of her parents' overbearing rules. Rules that are meant to protect their legally blind daughter -- protect her from what, Agnes isn't quite sure. Despite everything, Bo and Agnes become best friends. And it's the sort of friendship that runs truer and deeper than anything else. So when Bo shows up in the middle of the night, with police sirens wailing in the distance, desperate to get out of town, Agnes doesn't hesitate to take off with her. But running away and not getting caught will require stealing a car, tracking down Bo's dad, staying ahead of the authorities, and-worst of all-confronting some ugly secrets.
