Determined to discover her dead father’s past, which was a mystery even to him, eighteen-year-old Dani Lancaster heads into B.C.’s Interior. Her search eventually leads her to a tiny rustic community, charming in its own way but full of secrets. Here, Dani’s digging reveals more than she was searching for.
CCBC's Best Books for Kids & Teens (Fall 2015) — Commended
When Dani sets out to uncover her father’s past, she also discovers her own future.
Raised by her mother, eighteen-year-old Dani Lancaster only had six weeks to get to know her father, Sam, before he lost his battle with cancer. It was long enough to love him, but not long enough to get to know him — especially since Sam didn't even know himself.
Left on the doorstep of an elderly couple when he was just days old, and raised in a series of foster homes, Sam had no idea who his parents were or why they had abandoned him. Dani is determined to find out. With nothing more than an address book, an old letter, and a half-heart pendant to guide her, she sets out on a solo road trip that takes her deep into the foothills, to a long-forgotten town teeming with secrets and hopefully answers.
