本書描寫十二歲的 Sonnet，在失去奶奶後，與家人搬回祖父身邊生活。曾經繁盛的蘋果園，如今只剩下一棵老樹，靜靜見證家族的變遷。Sonnet 不願面對衰老與失去，只希望一切能維持原樣。偏偏在學校的口述歷史作業中，她被迫與鄰居 Zeke 分組，還要讓祖父成為訪談對象。Zeke 的提問一再觸碰她刻意避開的過往，也讓家族深藏的傷痛逐漸浮現。當一場意外迫使兩人再次合作，Sonnet 開始明白，真正的修復並非遺忘，而是願意回頭凝視。作者以雙視角鋪陳故事，讓衝突、理解與和解自然發生，呈現一段溫柔而深刻的成長歷程。When feuding neighbors Sonnet and Zeke are paired up for a class project, they unearth a secret that could uproot Sonnet's family--or allow it to finally heal and grow.
