13-year-old Rynn Jacobs lives all alone in the big house at the edge of town, and that's just how she likes it. But certain grown-ups don't like how self-possessed and fearless Rynn is. They don't like the cool way she stares them down when they threaten her, or the way she calls them out on their lies. They want to speak to her father. But Rynn has two big secrets hidden away in the cellar...and she'll do anything to keep them.
