School is almost out for the summer, and twelve-year-old Norma Jean longs for adventure and excitement. The Alberta grain farm where she lives with her five brothers and one sister is great for imaginative play, but Norma Jean wishes her life could be more like the books she reads-full of mystery and surprise. And then, while gazing out the school bus window, her younger brother and faithful friend, Howard, sees a suitcase in the ditch. As soon as they get home they race their bikes to Old Sven's place, an abandoned homestead, and investigate the mysterious suitcase. Through what they discover, Norma Jean and Howard are swept up in a mystery that takes them back into World War II history, and their family's fascinating involvement with the Danish Resistance. What they learn will shock and change this emigrant family's life forever.
