Why had he come to her, with his dark secrets from a long-ago
past? What was the purpose of their strange, haunting journeys back
into her own childhood?Was it to help Dab, her retarded older
brother, wracked with mysterious pain who sometimes took more care
and love than Tree had to give? Was it for her mother, Vy, who
loved them the best she knew how, but wasn''t home enough to ease
the terrible longing?
Whatever secrets his whispered message held, Tree knew she
must follow. She must follow Brother Rush through the magic mirror,
and find out the truth. About all of them.
