Description

Jamie is like most girls within the 1950s—she loves Hollywood movie stars and practicing her yoyo moves. But unlike those other girls, she has something to hide, a secret that may be hurting her circle of relatives. Jamie’s father is a member of the Communist Party, and in 1953, that is the worst thing you’ll be able to be. Senator Joseph McCarthy and his committee are throwing Americans in jail if they refuse to reveal the names of other Communists, and Jamie’s dad would possibly not. He isn’t a rat.

When the truth comes out, and her dad loses his job, Jamie is ashamed to show her face in school. She’s thrown off the school paper and not using a explanation, and hastily Jamie knows how her father feels. Is there anything she can do to assist her father? And what about herself?
