    About this ebook

    Quinn and Serra Calder are orphaned at a young age. Although they are twins, they couldn't be anymore different. Quinn is a logical thinker, questioning everyone and everything whereas Serra thinks more freely, expressing herself through art. Growing up in an orphanage located in a small New Jersey suburb, Serra disappears, leading Quinn on a frantic search through the surrounding woods. He finally finds her in a clearing of wildflowers. The field becomes the backdrop in this story of siblings trying desperately to understand the other and stay together.

      About the Author

      I: Incipient

      On the day of Sam and Denise Calder’s funeral their children had stood at their grave, watching wordlessly through wet eyes while several men in black suits bore shovels. They packed the dirt tightly and sealed the coffins beneath, mud that had formed from the light rainfall splattered on their formal attire. However, the children made no faces in disgust. They had barely so much as blinked. Identical green eyes stared in silence; small fingers clasped around the others hand.

      They heard the hushed murmurs around them. Comments like, Those poor children, and What a tragedy, floated through their little ears, and although they had heard them perfectly well, neither of them had quite understood what they meant. There had been a lot to process in only a few days and only so much a pair of four-year-olds could mentally process.

      As the priest led the attendees in prayer, Quinn and Serra Calder had only begun to comprehend that their mother and father were dead. The concept hadn’t been too complicated, Quinn had thought. His mother and father had lived as long as they were supposed to, and now they were angels. What had been strange to him though was that if they had become winged creatures that could fly, why did they have to bury the bodies under the earth?

      Serra wasn’t as logical. Although it had been explained to her numerous times, she simply didn’t understand why her parents had to leave. Only five nights ago her parents had tucked her into bed for the night and read to her and her brother. They had been smiling, and laughed when Quinn demanded to know how Rapunzel’s hair had
