Inhaltsangabe

When Samantha was three, her twin sister died, her parents divorced, and her father left. Sam's life has never been the same.

Now that she's thirteen, Sam can't stop wondering about her past. Why hasn't her father tried to contact her all these years? How could he have allowed Sarah to drown? And how can her mother expect her to accept some man she hardly knows as her new father? Samantha already has a father out there. Somewhere.

A fateful decision sets into motion a chain of events and confrontations that will change Samantha's and her family's lives forever. As she sets out to find her father and discover what really happened the day her sister drowned, she uncovers painful secrets that threaten to destroy her family all over again.

Dori Hillestad Butler's sensitive story draws readers into a suspenseful mystery about a flawed but loving family trying to heal.
