Of all the folks in the mountain shacks, the Casteels were the lowest--the scum of the hills...

Heaven Leigh Casteel was the prettiest, smartest girl in the backwoods, despite her ragged clothes and dirty face...despite her weary stepmother, who worked her like a mule. For her brother Tom and the little ones, Heaven clung to her pride and her hoped. Someday they'd get away and show the world that they were decent, fine and talented--worthy of love and respect.

Then Heaven's stepmother ran off, and her wicked, greedy father had a scheme--a vicious scheme that threatened to destroy the precious dream of eaven and the children forever!
