Description
Although Ruby seemed to just appear out of thin air on the steps of the courthouse on the first day of summer in 1944, no one in Way Down Deep, West Virginia, ever worried too much about where the toddler came from. But when Ruby is twelve, a new family moves to Way Down Deep, and they inadvertently provide enough clues about Ruby?s past that she is able to find her own people.
