Breathing underwater

Sarah Allen

Olivia is on the road trip of a lifetime, with her trusty camera and her big sister, Ruth, by her side. Three years ago, before their family moved from California to Tennessee, Olivia and Ruth buried a time capsule on their favorite beach. Now they're taking an RV back across the country to uncover the memories they left behind. But Ruth's depression has been getting worse, so Olivia has created a plan to help her remember how life used to be: a makeshift scavenger hunt. Throughout their journey, they'll be taking pictures and making memories, like they're pirates hunting from treasure. Olivia will do whatever it takes to snap the picture that will make her sister smile. But what if things can never go back to how they used to be? What if they never find the treasure they're seeking? As the two girls face these questions, all Olivia can do is love her sister, not change her -- and maybe that's enough
