Cautious good girl Eden's crush Will died suddenly before graduation, her best friend pulls away as summer begins, and her high-achieving family starts to splinter. Phoning a digital recreation of Will becomes a soothing habit but keeps Eden anchored to the past. Behind the futuristic premise is a solidly realistic coming-of-age story about Eden's struggles to face her grief and fears.
