(4) YA Two years after her father's death, Grace moves in with her estranged uncle, whom she had previously spent summers with. Returning to New Harbor means Grace also must come to terms with a hazy memory of rape that occurred there. Friendship and first love mingle awkwardly with sexual assault and Grace's devastating realization regarding her abuser. Still, Grace's journey is ultimately hopeful. Includes resources for survivors.
