Description: At the end of the nineteenth century in Manhattan's Lower Eastside, factory worker Virginia Chisholm's dreams go up in smoke when a tenement blaze rips her family apart. Aided by Lindsay Killian, a street-wise, rail-riding drifter she meets in a charity hospital, Ginny follows the orphan train that has taken her siblings west. This harrowing journey moves Ginny and Lindsay from one mishap and adventure to another and from friendship to a tender, unexpected romance.
