Overview
Ā
Eighteen-year-old Filipino American Ruby Santos has been unmoored since her motherās death. She canāt apply to art school like sheās always dreamed, and she and her father have had to move into the basement of their home and rent out the top floor while they work to pay back her motherās hospital bills.
Ā
Then Ruby finds out her father has been living a secret life as a delivery person for a magical underworldāhe ājumpsā train lines to help deliver packages for a powerful family. Recently, heās fallen behind on deliveries (and deeper into alcoholism), and if his debts arenāt satisfied, theyāre going to take her motherās house. In an effort to protect her father and save all that remains of her mother, Ruby volunteers to take over her dadās station and start jumping train lines.
Ā
But this is no ordinary job. Ruby soon realizes that the trains are much more than doors to romance and adventure: theyāre also doors to trafficking illicit goods and fierce rivalries. As she becomes more entangled with the magical underworld and the mysterious boy whoās helped her to learn magic, she realizes too late that she may be in over her head. Can she free her father and save her motherās house? Or has she only managed to get herself pulled into the dangerous web her father was trapped in?
