| Publisher Description: The life of Antonia "Cap" Capelli, is anything but normal. Brought up in a life of dysfunction, she is now living in a residential facility for girls until she turns 18 years old. This story is written from Cap's point of view, detailing the living conditions for the girls living in the facility with her. This is a work of fiction. Any similarities between the life of Cap and a real person are coincidental. Cap is a fictional character, but her life is anything but fictional. Girls living in residential facilities undergo much of the same treatment as Cap herself did. Learn about life as a teenager in the system that forgets about teenagers and dumps them on society when they turn 18. Cap's lack of preparation for turning 18 should surprise you, but for anyone working in the Juvenile Justice System this is no shock. |
