Summary
"Twelve-year-old Lowen, a budding comic book artist, is still reeling from the shooting death of his best friend, Abe, when he stumbles across an article about a former mill town giving away homes for just one dollar. It seems like not only the perfect escape from Flintlock and all the awful memories associated with the city, but also an opportunity for his mum to own her own business. Fortunately his parents, and eventually his brother and sister, are willing to give it a try. But is the Dollar Program too good to be true? The homes are in horrible shape, and the locals are less than welcoming. Lowen and the other Dollar Kids try to fit in, try to help their families succeed, yet some townsfolk seem determined to see them fail. Will Millville and the dollar house be the answer to Lowen's family's troubles? Or will they find they've traded one set of problems for another?"--, Provided by publisher
