She recruits her best friend, Annie Kim, and her strange new neighbour Rick Reyes (a rapper and inventor), to explore the history of the map and of their new community.
The trio learns that the town that they are living in was a key terminal on the Underground Railroad the illegal passageway to freedom that played a major role in the termination of slavery in America and that Poppys family played an important role in that history.
