Several years into her self-imposed exile, Kit has no close friends, lives in a run-down old house that she is spending a lot of money on to update, and keeps a series of notebooks that she unobtrusively journals something in ever day at the library. Sunny is 15 and opinionated and questioning-not what Kit really needs. Sunny (full name: Solstice Arkinsky) lives with her parents, Willow and Steve, and relates various stages of their nomadic life traveling cross country to sell handmade crafts at various fairs and malls. Sunny is sentenced to community service for stealing a dictionary from the mall bookstore and will serve it through the summer in the Riverton Public Library.
As the narrative unfolds, it changes from the viewpoint of Kit to those of a newly unemployed Wall Street whiz kid named Rusty to a 15-year-old girl, a member of a “Rainbow Family,” named Sunny. She works as the head librarian in the fading industrial town of Seldom Falls, PA.
Kit (formerly Katherine) has changed her name and moved far away after being caught up in a wrongful death case involving her former husband.
