About this book

Emily Benedict arrives in Mullaby, North Carolina, seeking answers about her mother's past. Upon entering her mother's childhood home and meeting her grandfather for the first time, Emily discovers that the town operates by its own logic: rooms with wallpaper that shifts with mood, unexplained lights crossing the yard at night, and a neighbor named Julia Winterson who bakes cakes infused with hope, longing to restore a love she believes may be slipping away. Emily finds herself amid a community of distinctive residents where mysteries are not solved but embraced as part of daily life. Questions arise: Can a hummingbird cake restore a lost love? Is there truly a ghost in Emily's backyard? The answers prove unexpected, yet in this town of misfits, the unusual belongs.
