Emma Healy has always felt like a part of her is missing. When she discovers a twin brother who died only two days after they were born, she realizes she has been right, and sets out to find what she lost so long ago. Peter Finnegan has an affinity for maps because they all lead away from the small town he desperately wants to escape. He decides to tag along with Emma on her trip, but a first glance, the fact that he and Emma are neighbors is all they have in common. Starting their trip in a beat-up (and technically stolen) car and picking up a stray dog along the way, they begin to discover that they are more alike than they though. And with every mile they cover, they get one step closer to finding everything they are after.
