Mary Scott is a national novelty, the first teen-age girl to live in the White House in a half-century. As she turns 21, America's Princess feels like America's last virgin. She dreams of experiencing life and love on her own, and wants to prove she can fend for herself despite an insidious disease. But Mary can't go anywhere without the Secret Service, or the S.S., as she calls it, until the day she disappears, in disguise. En route to Europe aboard a passenger liner, she tries to have an affair with Bert Decker. After a fateful kiss, Bert is the first to discover her true identity. He becomes wary, fearing a connection to her will expose his own secrets. He's on the run too. As they enter a 1960s world of hostels and hitchhiking on the continent, with government agents on her trail, Mary comes to realize her parents were right to worry about her disease and her overall safety.
