Highlands Ranch: Denver author Emily Hainsworth will read from and sign her debut novel for teen readers Through to You (Balzer & Bray). Camden Pike has been grief-stricken since his girlfriend, Viv, died. But when he makes a visit to the site of her deadly car accident, he sees some kind of apparition, and it isn’t Viv. The apparition’s name is Nina, and she’s not a ghost. She’s a girl from a parallel world, and in this world, Viv is still alive—though a very different person than the one Cam remembers. As Cam comes to terms with who this Viv has become and the part Nina played in his parallel story, he’s forced to choose—stay with Viv or let her go—before the window closes between them once and for all.Can’t make it to the signing?
