Book excerpt: A dandelion-obsessed witch mother, a car crash, and the attention of teenage boys lead to fourteen-year-old Dandelion's imprisonment in a remote tower. If Dandelion wants to escape the tower (and the control of her witch mother) she must learn how to stand up for herself. A modern retelling of the fairy tale Rapunzel reminds readers that the life we think we know is not always what it seems.
