When do you give up on a search for a family treasure?
Juliana needs the perfect present for Mom's birthday to show how much she cares. When Mom mentions a long-lost photo from her childhood, Juliana's found the ideal gift. She enlists her cousin Sophie to help her search all over her new-and therefore still unfamiliar-house. But when the mission turns impossible, Juliana turns to her great-grandmother's sketchbook to find hope.
Planting season has begun, but with Tata in America, Mammi toiling unendingly in the shoemaking workshop, and Elisabeth preparing for her confirmation, Elisabeth doesn't know how they will manage all the fieldwork. Thankfully, cousin Georg is willing to lend a hand, if only Mammi would accept the offer from a man she despises. Elisabeth must search for a way to convince Mammi to accept Georg's help or her family risks not planting enough food for their survival.
As Juliana hunts for that hidden photo from Mom's past, and Elisabeth seeks acceptance between Mammi and Georg, both girls discover that lost may not mean gone forever.
