This book is 4 siblings who go to a "mystic" woman while children and were given a look into their futures. Will these readings come true? Simon, Klara, Daniel and Varya all grow up wondering if their readings will in fact become reality. This was definitely an interesting story. Lots of surprises. It made you wonder what they were actually told all those years ago.

Simon - leads a questionable life and knows he will not be able to be himself if he stays in his hometown. He needs to leave. He heads to the West Coast to find love and finds a form of love that he may not have been aware he wanted.

Klara - has always had a fascination with magic. Will her choice to pursue it be a good one or not?

Daniel - eldest and most responsible. He finds his life bringing him to the military and being a doctor. Was his choice really worthwhile?

Varya - she pursued a life researching longevity. Trying to figure out what it is that could make people live longer.

All the siblings chose completely different paths in life. All searching for happiness and ways to escape reality. But at what cost?
