My Brother, Finch
Finch and Wren were as close as a brother and sister can be. When he vanished, when they were nine years old, her world cracked in two. Finch was never found.
On the same day that Finch disappeared, another girl was lost, too. Her name was Ava. Her parents were rich tourists from Sydney. Ava's story got all the media attention, and Finch was forgotten. But not by Wren. Never by Wren.
Three years on, Finch is still with her, whispering in her ear, guiding her through life. As Wren begins high school and forms a new, bewildering friendship with a mysterious girl called Freddie, Finch is there, urging her on. To go bolder. To go braver. To grab life with two hands.
When another girl goes missing—a strange girl called Johanna—Wren feels compelled to search for her. To her surprise, Freddie does, too. The two of them try and piece together who Johanna is and why she ran away. Or did she run away? Was the truth more awful? And was it all tied together with what happened to Finch and Ava?
My Brother, Finch is a story of family, of loss, of friendship and of grief, and of what it truly means to let go and move on.
