In the Quiet

Eleven-year-old Samantha is on a quest for magic. Something powerful enough to bring her mother back, if only for a few seconds. Since her mother died a few months ago, Sammy has been careful to keep all her memories and sadness tucked safely inside her, in the quiet.Now Aunt Constance has come to live with Sammy and her father. She may look like Sammy's mom, but Aunt Constance is odd. She has a special gift that helps her find lost people and things. There's one thing, though, that Aunt Constance has never been able to find: something that belonged to Sammy's mother. So she asks Sammy to help her. It will take all Sammy's courage to complete this quest, but she's willing to risk everything if it means feeling the joy of being close to her mother one more time.Ross, Adrienne is the author of 'In the Quiet', published 2001 under ISBN 9780606218627 and ISBN 0606218629.
