| All eighteen-year-old Maisie Clark wants to do is leave her tiny town in upstate New York. Crescent Valley is home to Glennaâ s, the family-run portrait shop she loves more than anything. But after years of imitating her dadâ s artistic style, Maisie fears she will never find her own voice. So, she comes up with a plan: quit working at Glennaâ s, go to art school in London, and, most importantly, stop painting portraits. If she canâ t find her voice by the end of the year, sheâ ll give up art entirely. Unfortunately, pushing outside her comfort zone is (surprise!) uncomfortable. Maisie struggles to connect with her eccentric new flatmates, feels farther away from her best friend than ever, and hates every art course she signed up forâ especially photography, where her talented but prickly partner, Eli, is not afraid to point out her every mistake on their semester-long project. Maisie is already questioning all her life choices when a crime strikes Glennaâ s, reopening old family wounds she thought sheâ d long healed from. Itâ ll take even more discomfort, as well as help from Eli, her older brother, Calum, and his earnest boyfriend, Benji, to confront the layers sheâ s painted over the past. But maybe, just maybe, the keys to finding herself lie closer to home than she realized. |
