Publisher Description:
Colette Faizal isn't superstitious, so she doesn't worry when a fortune-teller advises Colette's mother to watch for the unexpected. But when her father announces he is going back to Iran, her mother is hurt in a car accident and Colette is sent to live with the grandparents she's never even met, everything the mysterious woman predicted seems to be coming true. As Colette struggles to bring her family back together, she tries to hold on to the last thing the fortune-teller told her: You will know how to handle what lies ahead.
