When Thomas heads up the Chilkoot trail with his uncles, he leaves Rosie in Millie's care until spring. Disaster strikes in April - an avalanche kills many climbers on the trail. The tragic reminder of how Millie's father died prompts her mother to decide it's time to go home. Activity in Dyea slows once the gold seekers move on, but Millie has found reasons to stay. As departure time looms, she plots to persuade her mother to relocate instead to the growing town of Skagway, and to embrace their new way of life.

The Enemy's Daughter
In the spirit of Lauren Wolk and Ruta Sepetys comes the tale of a girl fighting her way back home after surviving the sinking of the Lusitania--and learning to think for herself rather than accept the prejudice of wartime. The year is 1915 and the world is at war. Marta and her father are passengers on the Lusitania, desperately trying to get back home to Germany. While aboard, they must keep their identities hidden or risk being mistaken for enemy spies. Then the Lusitania is attacked by a German submarine. They just make it off the sinking ship, but her father is discovered and detained. Marta suddenly finds herself alone in enemy land. To survive, Marta must draw upon a deep well of bravery she never knew she had. Fortunately, she meets Clare, a young Irish girl who can talk a mile a minute, and her kind family. Believing that Marta is a Dutch refugee, they welcome her into their home. She can't risk letting her new friends know she's actually from Germany--the very nation that the Irish and English are fighting against. But could these people who have shown her nothing but kindness truly be her enemy? Sweeping from the Irish Sea to a cathedral city in England, this story shows us that friendship, especially in times of war, may be the greatest gift of all.
