Stacy Palmer almost never thinks about being Chinese American, As far as she's concerned, she's just like everyone else.
Then Hong Ch'un comes to Stacy's school from China. Stacy and Hong Ch'un don't exactly get along, but when Hong Ch'un is accused of stealing and runs away, Stacy bows she must try to find her.
