Now in paperback with a new cover, Jennifer E. Smith's breathtaking novel about finding out where you are going by discovering what you've left behind. Emma and her neighbor Peter are both lonely in a way that only bothers them on occasion. They both come from families they don't quite understand. They both feel like something big is missing from their lives--and they're both about to search for answers. When Emma makes a discovery that shakes the foundations of her identity, she convinces Peter to join her for a road trip. Each of them has something to find: For Emma, it is a grave--a grave that may be her only connection to her family. Peter is seeking something harder to define, but perhaps easier to navigate--a freedom, a sense of something more than what he has. Together, they take to the open road, engaging in a universal quest to make sense of who they are and where they come from...and learning a thing or two about love along the way.
