“Griffin artfully dabs details on her canvas, then overlays her story with a supernatural patina that will immediately draw in the audience.”—Booklist, starred review

“Thoughtful, unique, and ultimately life-affirming.”—School Library Journal

As children, sisters Jane and Lily were inseparable. But inevitably, sisters grow up. And while Lily begins to make friends and date boys, older sister Jane wants to stay in the make-believe worlds they had created when they were young. And when Lily starts dating Caleb, Jane merely watches, frustrated and envious of Lily’s newfound life.

Then tragedy strikes and Lily is forced to find her way through a new world full of memories and changes—without Jane. But all the while, Jane is there, watching from the other side.
