Emma Saylor doesn't remember a lot about her mother, who died when she was ten.

Now it's just Emma and her dad, and life is good, if a little predictable, until Emma, is unexpectedly sent to spend the summer with her mother's family, her grandmother, and cousins she hasn't seen since she was a little girl.
