Calli is a girl who hasn't spoken in 3 years. As you read this story, you get to learn of different perspectives of each character. The story unfolds of why Calli doesn't seem to talk, we learn of the family she has, the friendship she makes, and a tragedy she witnesses. This is a bit of a "Who-done-it" book. You will want to know what is happening, who hurt who, and what is going to happen next. It's a pretty quick read. The ending is slightly predictable but not completely a happy ending either.
