description: Nineteen-year-old summer intern Bronwen McCuddhy must prove herself worthy to join a team probing the deep mysteries of genetics- in spite of an unexpected telegram with news of a family tragedy that makes her question who she really is and what she wants from life. Her sense of humor and her secret weapon- the writings of the poet Rainer Maria Rilke- are the keys to her survival of that fateful, not quite typically American summer.
