About this book
Set in a 1990s Southern Ontario small town, thirteen-year-old Jane is consumed by grief after her father's death and bonds with local eccentric Ernest, still haunted by his little sister's drowning decades ago. When Jane and Ernest disappear together, the town's community erupts with suspicion and subliminal fear. This lyrical debut mixes realism and the fantastic to explore grief, longing, and what reaches beyond the grave.
