Mila is used to being alone. Maybe that's why she accepted. She said yes to a second chance in that remote place, among the flowers and the mist and the crash of the waves under her feet. But she didn't know about the ghosts. Just graduated from high school, Mila is already too old to continue in foster homes. So when she's offered a teaching job and a place to live in a secluded section of coastal North Carolina, she immediately accepts. Maybe she can finally find a new home, a real home. The farm is a haven, but it is also haunted by the past. And Mila's own memories are beginning to surface... Nina LaCour, winner of the Printz Award for We Are Okay, offers us another emotional wonder about trauma and survival, the family we choose and rebirth.
