***Eleven-year-old Gilly has been stuck in more foster families than she can remember, and she's disliked them all intensely.*** She has a county-wide reputation for being brash, brilliant, and completely unmanagable. So when **she's sent to live with the Trotters -- by far the strangest family yet** -- Gilly decides to put her brilliant mind to work. Before long she's devised an elaborate scheme to get her real mother to come "rescue" her.
