Robbie McCauley is no ordinary 17-year-old. While his friends play hockey, Robbie has been chasing a family mystery. Growing up, he always knew about his great-great grandmother, Ada, who was born in 19th century London, England and put up for adoption as a child. At the age of twelve, Ada was sent to Canada and never saw her family again. Robbie has asked Ancestors in the Attic for help in tracking down Ada's lost brothers, and finally reuniting her long lost family.
