IVY IS ON A QUEST.

Stuck in a family overflowing with lawyers, Ivy Breedlove longs to be understood, to break free of unfair expectations and to find the truth about the mysterious hermit aunt who broke the family mold - the relative no one will talk about. With an outrageous mountain guide leading the way, Ivy sets out on the journey of a lifetime to find the missing link in the Breedlove family. But is she too late?

"Rich with engaging characters, a light love interest, and dramatic tension in a well-paced plot, this is another great read from Bauer." - SLJ
