"Patina "Patty" Jones is the fastest girl on the Defenders track team. Makes sense; she's got a lot to run for. She runs for the kids at the fancy new school she's now being sent to, to show the ones who taunt her that she's gonna be something one day. She runs for her fellow Defenders newbies -- Ghost, Sunny, and Lu -- to make them proud. She runs for her little sister, Maddy, who relies on Patty to show her how to be brave and strong. And she runs for her mother, who can never run again. Like Ma says, Patty ain't no junk. And she's out to prove it. But when the pressure becomes too much, can she outdistance it?"--, Provided by publisher
