When Katie Myrdal's father is found dead in his Porsche, everything she thought she knew about her family is shaken. Her uncle Len and his wife Maggie-relatives she barely knew existed-show up at the funeral and offer an escape for the summer to their Kansas farm. Katie abandons her Chicago Gold Coast high-rise life to land beneath the wider skies of the prairie. Grappling with loss and disillusionment, Katie must forge new skills and new friendships in a small town called Opulence, a town holding secrets and riches she will need before she can go back home.
