La situación cambia radicalmente cuando el chip de su madre deja de funcionar y las Fuerzas de Deportación llegan al pueblo. La familia tiene que huir rumbo a casa de la tía Luna. El destino final es California, ese estado santuario alrededor del cual se levanta una muralla. Cuando la madre de Vali es detenida, antes incluso de iniciar su viaje, la joven de 16 años tendrá que atravesar impensables peligros para preservar la vida de su hermano menor.
La esperanza prevalece. Porque todo el mundo puede encontrar un santuario en esta visión futurista de Paola Mendoza y Abby Sher.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION NATIONAL BESTSELLERA USA Today Bestseller Co-founder of the Women's March makes her YA debut in a near-future dystopian where a young girl and her brother must escape a xenophobic government to find sanctuary. It's 2032, and in this near-future America, all citizens are chipped and everyone is tracked. It's almost impossible to survive as an undocumented immigrant, but that's exactly what sixteen-year-old Vali is doing. She and her family have carved out a stable, happy life in small-town Vermont, but when Vali's mother's counterfeit chip starts malfunctioning and the Deportation Forces raid their town, they are forced to flee.
Now on the run, Vali and her family are desperately trying to make it to her tía Luna's in California, a sanctuary state that is currently being walled off from the rest of the country. But when Vali's mother is detained before their journey even really begins, Vali must carry on with her younger brother across the country to make it to safety before it's too late.
Gripping and urgent, co-authors Paola Mendoza and Abby Sher have crafted a narrative that is as haunting as it is hopeful in envisioning a future where everyone can find sanctuary.
