Twelve-year-old Maisie is an artist. When she\u2019s in front of her sketchbook or apprenticing at Glenna\u2019s Portraits, the family-run art shop her grandmother started, the world makes sense. She doesn\u2019t think about Calum, her brother who mysteriously left home and cut ties with her family six years ago, or her parents\u2019 insistence that she \u201cbroaden her horizons\u201d and try something new\u2014something that isn\u2019t art.<\/p>\n
But when Glenna\u2019s Portraits falls on hard times, Maisie\u2019s plan to take over the shop when she\u2019s older and become a lifelong artist starts to crumble. In desperation to make things right, Maisie runs away to London to reconnect with her adult brother, hoping he might be the key to saving the shop. But as Maisie learns about her family\u2019s past from Calum, she starts to rethink everything she\u2019s ever known. Maisie must decide not only if saving her family\u2019s art shop is worth it, but if she can forgive her parents for the mistakes they’ve made.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
