'Though others believed she was worthless, May told her she was the best little girl in the world. Now May is dead, and 12-year-old Summer faces a loneliness too big to carry alone. She still desperately needs May to care for her, so she searches for some indication that May is watching over her. As each silent day passes, their home seems unbearably empty, and no sign appears.

Summer engages the help of some of her friends who also believe in an afterlife, and, finally, word came for Summer, direct as could be!"
