Siena's obsession with abandoned things began a year and a half ago, around the time her two-year-old brother, Lucca, stopped talking. Now Mom and Dad are moving the family from Brooklyn to Maine, hoping that it will mean a whole new start for everyone.
Siena soon realizes that their wonderful old house on the beach holds secrets. When she writes in her diary with an old pen she found in her closet, the pen writes its own story-of Sarah and Joshua, a brother and sister who lived in the same house during World War II. As the two stories unfold, amazing parallels begin to appear, and Siena senses that Sarah and Joshua's story might contain the key to unlocking Lucca's voice.
