To Georgia, the town looks less like the romantic and unique Main Streets she sees in her art books and more like a military barracks, which is not surprising given the strict leadership of its mayor, a retired Army captain. Georgia’s first attempt at inspiring a bit of art appreciation meets a disastrous end. Not that the people of Kingsburg even notice. They are much more captivated by the controversial photographs taken by the new kid in school, Henry Winters.Once Henry's photographs spread through town with the destructive power of a tornado, Georgia decides that for every ugly thing Henry does, she will counteract it with something beautiful, like a magnet, her positive to his negative. By doing this, however, she risks more than her reputation: she risks the fury of the mayor, who holds a key component to her family’s past—and future.
