Safe is the memory of Mama.
Safe is Pa and school and best friends like Caroline.
Safe is normal…until the day the orange car pulls up and everything – even Mama – is ripped away.
In the aftermath of an unspeakable crime, Tracy must fight her way back to safety and find comfort in her mother’s memory once again. ~from the book jacket

I really liked how this book did not sensationalize the tragic event, but focused on the main character's attempt at getting back to "normal" and being able to feel safe again. The same kinds of thoughts and feelings could happen to anyone no matter what the tragic event was.
