Sixteen-year-old Skye thinks her life sucks. Her father is dead, her mother has no time for her, and her best friend is busy with a new boyfriend. Skye longs to belong to a real family. So when an invite arrives for Skye to travel to the West Coast of New Zealand to meet her ailing great-grandfather, she's keen to go. She's also determined to find out why her mother is estranged from the rest of the family. But the truth remains elusive and Skye finds herself ensnared in several difficult situations, all played out against a beautiful but threatened landscape. Why is her mother so cruel to her sister, Skye's aunt? What dangerous family secret is Skye's great-grandfather trying to confess? Why is she drawn so much to her newly-found teenage cousin, Josh? What can she do to stop Josh's environmental protest group being betrayed by a double agent? Skye is pulled in different directions - but the worst problem is her own fear. In the end, all she can do is ... run.
