Description
Sophie Perella's senior year of high school is about to become a reality she never expected. Her sister Kira has been diagnosed with an immune disorder that's causing widespread concern, and their parents' marriage is struggling to cope. As the situation spirals out of control, Sophie's mother takes the girls to Oxford, England, to live with their Aunt Irene, a professor who specializes in treating people with the illness. Irene's expertise offers a glimmer of hope, but also raises more questions than answers about the mysterious condition and its connection to the past. As mortality rates climb and reports emerge of bodily tremors in the deceased, Sophie is faced with an unimaginable choice: let go of her sister or take action to embrace something terrifying and new. This tender and chilling story explores a young woman's dawning awareness of mortality and the power of the human heart to thrive in catastrophic circumstances.
