13-year-old Florida born Jordan Calley is about to visit her relatives in Newfoundland and Labrador, a place where she is as likely to find codfish drying on the clothesline as she is shirts? She certainly has her doubts about this place until she decides to check it out for herself. After arriving on the island, Jordan meets her great-grandfather for the first time. She finds that Poppy is unlike any of her other relatives. She is quite intrigued by his unique accent. Then there is the basement workshop where he keeps a set of green antique dishes from the old Reed Newfoundland railway. Each time she visits Poppy in the basement, she notices that another dish has disappeared. Then, too, there is the illusive figure that keeps appearing and disappearing and those mysterious shadows that lurk in the moonlit pathway causing Lucky to bark each night, right on schedule. As Jordan searches for the answers to these mysteries, she becomes involved with a troubled young boy, and a very intriguing culture that is a huge part of her heritage.

The Geiger family is an "international family" having members who are not only American and Canadian, but also Chinese, and even a "little" Cherokee. Geiger is an accomplished poet and is the published author of four other children's books; A Wild and Woolly Night, Cool Critters, If a Centipede had to Wear Socks, and Trouble at the Blueberry Patch. She has also published Okay! Does This One Need Stitches?, a book to tickle your funny bone.
