Ellie’s older brother Luke ran away a year ago. Things at home weren’t the best between Luke and his mother, but then comes a phone call from the Michigan State Police informing them that Luke’s car went off the road and he was pronounced dead at the scene.

Luke was Ellie’s best friend and she thought she knew everything about him. The day of the funeral, Ellie returns home to find an envelope addressed to her with no name just the city of origin on the return address. Inside is a road map that Ellie, Luke, and Luke’s best friend Wes had marked with all of the places they wanted to visit. But who sent this to Ellie? When Luke left, he and Wes weren’t speaking to each other and to top things off, Ellie’s love interest Cade was put on the back burner without any explanation to him. Ellie, Wes, Gwen (Wes’s girlfriend, who at one time had dated Luke), and Cade decide to follow the map to find out what happened to Luke after he left and, hopefully, have their many unsolved questions answered.

Recommended for grades 9 and up.
