Homeschooled, she accompanies her loving father--brilliant, eccentric, socially inept--to work every day. By twelve, she is a painfully shy prodigy. At the same time that the lab begins to gain acclaim, David's mind begins to falter and his mysterious past comes into question. When her father moves into a nursing home, Ada is taken in by one of David's colleagues. She embarks on a mission to uncover her father's secrets: a process that carries her from childhood to adulthood. Eventually, Ada pioneers a type of software that enables her to make contact with her past and to reconcile the man she thought she knew with the truth.Praised for her ability to create quirky and unforgettable characters, Liz Moore has written a piercing story of a daughter's quest to restore the legacy of the father she desperately loves.Liz Moore, a journalism graduate of Kansas State University, worked for ten years for daily and weekly newspapers in Kansas and Texas, where she won awards for her reporting, editing, and photography.

Liz also spent five years in Washington, D.C. Liz chose her next phase of life, returning to the little town, because she was tired of cities and had finally written this novel. She has lived in Independence, her hometown and place of pre-college education, since 2008.
