Chapter 1 - Robin's Coming - "The sun had just started setting when Darcey heard the car pulling into her driveway lined with glowing yellow and orange daylilies. She knew it had to be her cousin Robin! Only the week before, they had been together at Robin’s mom’s funeral in a stone church in Brooklyn, just a few blocks from where Robin and her mother lived. With a big smile, Darcey ran over and pulled open the front door of the 4-wheel-drive station wagon."
