Story
Growing up in a remote part of Alaska, Ivan and September Crane know that autumn is an unpredictable season - days of clear blue skies can give way to fierce, sudden storms in a blink. They know the trouble signs: changes in the wind, the temperature, or even the color of the dawn. But somehow, this time, left alone when their fisherman father is delayed at sea, even their keen sense of their surroundings and the lessons they've been taught fail them.

A visit with an old friend..
A lovely visit with an old friend or family member that you haven’t seen in quite some time. A chance to catch up on all the news and gossip from your old home town that you didn’t even know mattered to you. By the end of all Tom’s books, you come to know the people, their history, what gets them up and going in the morning, and what settles them in at night. They become your friends and they become important to you, as much as the people you knew decades ago, but have lost touch with.
Spend a little time catching up and getting to know them, again.
