A mystery she can't remember. A friend she refuses to forget

Eighty-four-year-old Edie Havercroft is in a bit of a muddle. At least, that's what her family continues to tell her. So when Edie sees Lucy Theddle standing outside of the post office one Tuesday afternoon, her family chalks it up to one of her confusions. Because Lucy can't be standing outside the post office—she disappeared back in 1951.

Meanwhile in 1951, fifteen-year-old Edie is lonely. So when she stumbles into a friendship with the mayor's daughter, it-girl Lucy Theddle, she cannot believe her luck…even if Lucy's friendship comes with a terrible secret.

As past and present collide, Edie becomes determined to finally figure out what happened to Lucy in 1951 before it's too late. All she remembers is Lucy was once her friend, and that she herself knew a secret that no one else ever did. A secret that could unlock what actually happened to Lucy Theddle before the girl is forgotten forever.
