In a family gifted with the ability to see a mysterious light in the distance, one teen embarks on a fantastical journey to find her missing sister, and finally answer the question— is this ancestral gift a blessing or a curse? This surreal graphic novel is perfect for fans of Leigh Bardugo and Mariko Tamaki.

Greater Secrets tells the story of Maya's family, which is either cursed or blessed, depending on whom you ask. For as far back as anyone can remember, her family has had the ability to see a mysterious pillar of light in the distance. Those who have tried to reach it have never returned. Maya has no idea what one might find if they follow the light. Adventure? Destiny? But what if one's destiny isn't a good thing?

Maya's sister left to follow her light... and has been missing ever since.

That's how Maya finds herself on a surreal road trip with two people she barely knows, headed towards a ghost town where her sister was last seen. Unfortunately, the closer Maya gets to her sister, the closer she gets to her own pillar of light. Maya doesn't know if she's ready to face her destiny, but if it means finding her sister, then she'll do whatever it takes.
