"Lynn's life is full with choir practice, school, shopping for the perfect jeans, and dealing with her free-spirited mother. Then one day she meets a mysterious girl named Blossom, who introduces Lynn to her own world and family which are both more bizarre, yet somehow more sane, than Lynn's. Blossom's family is a small band of outcasts and eccentrics who live secretly in an ingenious bunker beneath a city reservoir, where they forage and trade for what they need, living off the things "Citizens" throw away. Lynn is enchanted and amazed. But when she inadvertently reveals their secret, she is forced to take measure of her own motives and lifestyle, as she figures out what it really means to be a family and a friend." -- Provided from publisher.
