The Postcards That Knew the Way Home
Thirteen-year-old Lily expects nothing more exciting than folding paper lanterns at her grandmother’s stationery shop—until a mysterious postcard appears in the mailbox with instructions to find a blue window that has no room behind it. With her noisy best friend Hyuga and a guarded girl named Pim, Lily discovers a hidden passage filled with the memories of Lantae Old Quarter.
When three enchanted lights vanish, the neighborhood begins forgetting the stories that make it home. Racing against the tolling of the seventh bell, the friends must search the market, sea wall, and old water tower, then face a lonely creature made from forgotten memories. Their journey teaches them that home is not merely a place people inherit; it is a living collection of kindness, laughter, and stories that must be noticed and shared.
