When my brother and I were very little, our parents left us to the care of our aunt and uncle and seemed to disappear off the face of the earth. For nine years we've lived in this mansion, and every day is the same-school, chores, and trying to find something to occupy us. Until he comes along. In just one afternoon my whole world changes. This boy is hiding something and I'm determined to find out what it is, even if it kills me.
