Leonie and Nora couldn’t be less alike.

Leonie is brave and bold. She left the Isle of Pitte behind in search of adventure and swore she’d never return. Nora prefers the cosy embrace of home. And besides, one of them has to take some responsibility.

When her reckless lifestyle catches up with her, Leonie returns home to Pitte to recover in the comforting, cloying care of her younger sister. Instead, she's surprised to find reliable, steadfast Nora is just as lost as she is.

Leonie and Nora have spent their lives certain they've nothing in common, but it seems they each have exactly what the other needs. And there's no one who can heal you – or hurt you – quite like a sister.
