David is thirteen. He's on his way to see his grandparents in Bent Fork, a one-horse community in northern British Columbia. David is ambivalent about the trip. He's expecting little more than a week of cheek pinching from Nana's neighbours. Yet, his brothers both made the same trip when they turned thirteen. And they seemed to have come back... well, different.

Upon his arrival, he receives a package in the mail. It's marked only with his name, followed by the words "Bent Fork." He doesn't recognize the language nor the currency of the postage stamps.

David is about to discover there is much more than he had imagined to Bent Fork, its residents and his own history.
