Seventeen year old Lia always felt confused and unsure of herself, being half white and half black. With her Barbie-esque mother, Joan, in her own self-absorbed world, Lia always could rely on her dad, Liam, to make her smile. But now that he’s dead, smiling won’t happen often, if ever. To fulfill his last request, Lia and her mother continue the move to his childhood town, Wolf Falls. It’s shadowy, frigid, and smells strangely of wet dog. Lia settles into the town with the help of Zev, her cute but peculiar neighbor. Instantly, she notices the strange looks and she’s sure it’s because of her biracial heritage. But Lia’s destined to discover that her ethnicity isn’t the problem. As she unravels the daunting secret about Wolf Falls, her neighbor, and herself Lia is forced to realize the truth that’s helps her understand her true heritage.
