From away

the long version

Sammy Kehoe, his sister, Charlotte, and her four-year-old daughter, Maggie, are all each other have left since the car accident that killed the rest of their family. When they visit their beloved old home on remote Fox Island in Maine, Sammy and Charlotte each have relationship sparks with island locals. But the budding idyll is shattered when Sammy and Maggie's unexplained abilities to "see things" are put to the test when dangerous ghosts from the past resurface. At first, this novel about an usual and loving family draws readers in with warmth and intrigue - and then it builds with suspense that makes it impossible to put down.
