“[an] imaginative debut…” – The New York Times
“The Strange Inheritance of Leah Fern is a bittersweet and achingly tender coming of age novel. Like V. E. Schwab and Audrey Niffenegger, Rita Zoey Chin is an expert guide to that territory in which magic, loss, and possibility change not only the characters but the reader, too.” – Kelly Link, author of Get in Trouble
The luminous story of a fiercely lonely young woman’s quest to uncover the truth behind her mother’s disappearance . . .
When 6-year-old empath Leah Fern–once “The Youngest and Very Best Fortune Teller in the World”–is abandoned by her beautiful magician mother, she is consumed with longing for her mother’s return.
Until something bizarre happens: On her 21st birthday Leah receives an inheritance from someone she doesn’t even know, and finds herself launched on a journey of magical discovery. It’s a voyage that will spiral across the United States, Canada, into the Arctic Circle and beyond–and help her make her own life whole by piecing together the mystery surrounding her mother’s disappearance.
The Strange Inheritance of Leah Fern is an enchanting novel about the transcendent power of the imagination, the magic at the threshold of past and present, and the will it takes to love.
