When Emi Warrin wakes one night to find a thief in her mother's house, she has no idea the intruder has planted a trap-a mysterious letter that will change her life forever. Lured to the Austrian Alps with Daniel, the man she loves, Emi is thrown into a perilous, mafia-like world of fueding families and a devastating curse that spans generations. As the Firstborn She, the only firstborn female in hundreds of years-only Emi can free her family from the curse that will soon afflict her as well. But for Emi to breake the curse, she must delve into her family's dark past, and she must gain the trust of those who would use her for their own evil designs. As Emi struggles to understand her destiny as the Firstborn She, she learns that everything isn't as it seems and that all choices have consequences. Can Emi break the curse before it's too late?… (more)

How would you like to find out when you are twenty-two that all of your life has been a lie?

Or that the father you thought was dead was really alive?

What about the fact that you have a great power to free your family, the family you have never met, from a powerful curse?

That is what happens to Emi while her mother is in Europe and she is house sitting. Emi and the guy she has a gigantic crush on decide to go to Austria to see if they can solve the mystery. While there, Emi meets her family and tries to puzzle out the truth about a mysterious legend and who she can trust.

I really liked this book. It was fast-moving and the plot kept me interested. I liked the character of Emi, who was shy - yet when she had to be brave, she rose to the challenge. I have read a lot of mysteries lately, and this was one of the best. (
