Maggie started acting out to drive away her mother's fiance, but it didn't work. By the time he makes his move on her, she's sure he's right - her mother will never believe her. So she runs away, far away, out of state. Her mother, Peg, doesn't want to believe the diary Maggie's left behind. But once she does, she knows she has to find Maggie, fast, or they may never see each other again. And Maggie's already running from new dangers, after she's in the wrong place at the wrong time. As each of them struggles with the issues around Maggie's running away, the strength of the bond between them becomes evident. This is a story of the resilience of the characters and the mother-daughter relationship and about how each of them has been running away. The suspense line in this thriller makes it a fast read that will appeal to at-risk teens and any reluctant reader - as well as adults and young adults who enjoy a good story. Originally published as Running Away, portions of this novel have been updated to align with Peg's Story: Detours.
