Baby, almost twelve, and her father, Jules, twenty-six, move from crumbling apartment to shabby hotel due to his heroin habit.

But there's only one career option for an attractive, neglected girl, no matter how bright and imaginative. Winner of Canada Reads 2007. Descriptions of sex, violence and strong language. 2006.
