Left on a train platform in an unfamiliar village, little Saffron Faith Anders is certain her father will return shortly, just like he promised. She holds out hope even as the hours pass and the station grows dark. When a strange old woman with a large umbrella approaches and inquiries about her situation, Saffron doesn't immediately trust the imposing do-gooder, but with the chances of her father returning growing ever slimmer, she agrees to rest at the old woman's house.

After escaping the trauma of the Umbrella Lady's home, Saffron Faith Anders is determined to find the father who abandoned her all those years ago. When she finds him in a nearby town, Saffron is shocked to discover that he has married a woman he clearly had been involved with before her mother's death. Worse, her father insists Saffron pretend to be his niece so he can continue to con his new wife's family. It soon becomes clear that perhaps it is better to face the world alone than trapped in a toxic and potentially dangerous family. -- adapted from jacket
