Ruby Carmichael, a skinny thirteen-year-old, finds her stepfather
leaning over her mother's deceased body. Protruding from Eleanor's
chest was a pair of scissors plunged deep in her chest. Eleanor had
been Jack Parade's ex-wife for more than five years. ... Jack
turned and stared at Ruby, who was standing at the kitchen
entrance. Ruby stared in disbelief. Her stepdad was leaning over
her mother, and her mother was dead on the floor. Eleanor's face
was white with fear, and her eyes were bulging out. Jack reached
around Eleanor's body to check for a pulse. She was dead. She died
after the one scream that was heard by Ruby, Jack, the two men that
ran through the laundry room to the rear exit, and the two men who
climbed through Eleanor's bedroom window. Ruby was numb with fear.
... ... "Ruby, what are you doing here?" ... ... "Dad, you were
touching the scissors in Mom's chest. I saw you. Why?..". Jack
Parade marries Maria Louisa Garcia-Stewart and becomes the
stepfather of her twin eleven-year-old boys. Ruby instantly becomes
a sister, daughter, granddaughter and niece. This is all
overwhelming to a young, private girl who suffers with emotional
problems, as well as, being eccentric with bouts of depression. She
is considered a suspect in her mother's murder. Ruby's life is in
danger along with her new family. Ruby has a secret that even Ruby
doesn't know about. Her biological father, Lester Carmichael, who
was just released from prison after a ten year sentence, wants
Ruby. He wants her dead or alive. Eleanor's boyfriend, Boris also
wants Ruby, but he wants Ruby alive.
