When they leave her with distant relatives in Maine, Felicity hopes they won&#8217;t leave her long. Her new Uncle Gideon hides things. Her Aunt Miami is star-crossed. And Derek, a kid her age, refuses to leave his room.<\/p>\n<p>But Felicity needs Derek&#8217;s help. Gideon is getting coded letters from Felicity&#8217;s parents, and she&#8217;s sure they&#8217;re in trouble. Can Felicity crack the code, heal the family and save her parents, all while surviving her first crush?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Snippet:<\/strong> <em>I barely heard them. I was watching that letter halfway under the door. And then just as I was about to turn round and go downstairs, the letter moved. Someone pulled it under the door and picked it up. <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>My heart started racing and thumping and spinning, carrying on inside me like a tiny bird in a new cage. I was scared and nervous and pleased all at once. It was a nice feeling to realize that I had run a test and it had worked. I had proved that Derek existed. He was in there. It made me think that I can be a clever girl, even though I can&#8217;t do long division. <\/em><\/p>\n<p>BONUS!
