She can't apply to art school like she's 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 mother's hospital bills.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThen Ruby finds out her father has been living a secret life as a delivery person for a magical underworld—he \"jumps\" train lines to help deliver packages for a powerful family. Recently, he's fallen behind on deliveries (and deeper into alcoholism), and if his debts aren't satisfied, they're going to take her mother's house. In an effort to protect her father and save all that remains of her mother, Ruby volunteers to take over her dad's station and start jumping train lines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBut this is no ordinary job.
