What she found in the woods

Josephine Angelini

World-weary New York teen Magda is on her last chance. After setting off a scandal in the elite New York City private school scene, she's been shipped off to her grandparents' sleepy Pacific Northwest town to spend a summer under the radar and regain her equilibrium. Over-medicated and uninspired, she spends her days in a fog, and finds her only solace in the beautiful hiking trails behind her grandparents' cottage.
