Сьюзан Фриман0.0 Mia Veery wishes her family would conform to her idea of a "normal" American family, like the ones she reads about. That family would not include a mother who flies airplanes and craves adventure; half-sisters who dress all in black and read French novels; or a father who moves them from ordinary Ohio to exotic Beirut, Lebanon.Then one day her wish is granted in a way Mia never intended. When her parents disappear at sea, she is sent to stay with her aunt in Tennessee, whom she's never met. During a summer spent longing for her parents, Mia struggles to conform to small-town society while refusing to acknowledge that her life has changed irrevocably, and that she must redefine what being a family means.
