'Grandpa stopped speaking the day he killed my brother, John. His name was John until Grandpa said he looked more like a Bird with the way he kept jumping off things, and the name stuck. Bird's thick, black hair poked out in every direction, just like the head feathers of the blackbirds, Grandpa said, and he bet that one day Bird would fly like one too. Grandpa kept talking like that, and no one paid him much notice until Bird jumped off a cliff, the cliff at the edge of the tallgrass prairie, the cliff that dropped a good couple hundred feet to a dried-up riverbed below. From that day on, Grandpa never spoke another word. Not one. The day that Bird tried to fly, the grown-ups were out looking for him - all of them except Mom and Granny. That's because that very day, I was born.' Twelve-year-old Jewel never knew her brother, but all her life she has lived in his shadow. Then one night, on her birthday, she finds a mysterious boy sitting in her oak tree. His name is John. And he changes everything.

Dass es Dinge gibt, über die man in einer Familie nicht redet, ist ganz natürlich, findet Jewel. Oder vielleicht kommt einem das auch nur so vor, wenn man am selben Tag geboren wurde, an dem der ältere Bruder gestorben ist. Wenn man dann auch noch in einer Multikulti-Familie auf dem Land lebt, kann das Leben manchmal eine ganz schöne Herausforderung sein. An einem Tag im Sommer taucht plötzlich John auf und zum ersten Mal in ihrem Leben hat Jewel einen Freund. Als dann aber Jewels Vertrauen missbraucht wird, lernt sie, dass man über manche Dinge nicht schweigen darf.
