Overview

Who is my father? The question haunts Harley Columba, a feisty 14-year-old living in Lenape Lakes, New Jersey, “only forty-five minutes outside of New York City,” but “four zillion light-years away.” She’s convinced she’s adopted, since there’s no way those “two psychos” downstairs could possibly be her parents. Harley has never seen her birth certificate. All she knows is that she was born in New York City. When Harley stumbles across a note signed “Papa loves you forever and a day” tied around the neck of an old harlequin doll, she’s convinced it’s a gift from her long-lost father. She dreams of this “real” father who will rescue her from the constant rage of her alcoholic father and bitter mother. Pushed to the edge, Harley begins a search for her real father that takes her from the suburban backroads to the pulsing streets of New York City, where she confronts the truth.
