Fern has known stability for the past six years at the Ranch, a sustainable, off-the-grid living community in New York that her mom moved them to after years of bouncing from place to place. One night, though, without warning, Fern’s mom sneaks them away in the middle of the night, telling her that Dr. Ben is dangerous. Despite her misgivings about life outside the Ranch, the Pacific Ocean at their new home in California draws Fern in, as do her new connections with people. Now Fern must decide–where is home, and what is she willing to do to find it?
