Maggie may be the youngest, but she is a born worrier. Even when everything is going right for her and her sister, Jenny, for her beautiful red-haired mother, Irene, and for her dad--who loves to take Maggie into the woods around their house in Duchess Creek to teach her survival skills--she can't help worrying. When her dad is killed in a logging accident, it seems that Maggie was right to be anxious. But never in her wildest dreams did she imagine what happens next: one day her mom drops the girls off in Williams Lake to billet for a while with a couple who knew their dad. She says it's only temporary and promises to come back for them soon, but weeks turn into months and then years. When Jenny eventually gets into trouble she can't cope with, fourteen-year-old Maggie decides that it's up to her to find Irene and repair their fractured family.
