Nannerl Mozart’s twelfth-birthday wish is to become a famous composer. She’s already considered a brilliant musician, touring eighteenth-century Europe with her little brother, Wolfgang, and playing for queens and kings in the great courts. But Papa doesn’t take her seriously as a composer because she is a girl, Mama usually has a list of chores for her to do, and Wolfi manages to steal everyone’s attention. But Nannerl is not ready to give up her dream. Can she defy expectations and take control of her musical destiny?

Kate loves running, bird watching, and her grandparents' farm. She is a typical whiny, selfish 15-year-old who doesn't get along with her mother. Spending the summer with her grandparents is supposed to help her to push herself out of the center of the universe and recognize that others have problems more pressing than her own. When she arrives, she discovers that her beloved farm is for sale because her grandfather is not well and her grandmother cannot care for it alone. Then she is thrust into a family mystery as the ghost of her great-aunt begins to visit her dreams and inspire her to solve a 70-year-old puzzle. The teen's life begins to intertwine with the ghost as clues are revealed that may help save the family home. A couple of handsome yet mysterious farmhands complicate Kate's life as she struggles with the dilemma of whom she can trust. Mystery lovers will enjoy the blend of modern conflicts, historical fiction, and ghostly visits.
As an intricate choral music lovingly arranged, this gathering makes manifest a rich community of accomplished voices, a community whose immediate concerns are various, whose informing circumstances diverge, but whose common chord remains apprehensible and compelling--a long devotion to peace attaining to a concurrent devotion to beauty. --Scott Cairns.
