The novel is set in Flint, Michigan, in 1936, during the Great Depression. It follows the journey of ten-year-old Bud Caldwell, an orphan who runs away from an abusive foster home. Armed with a suitcase of special items and flyers left by his late mother, Bud sets out on a quest to find the man he believes to be his father, a jazz musician and band leader named Herman E. Calloway. The story is a heartwarming and humorous tale of resilience as Bud searches for family and a place to belong.
