I was drawn to the cover of the book The Other Side Of Disappearing by Kate Clayborn. The story revolves around two sisters. Jess is a hairstylist who has been taking care of her sister, Tegan, since their mother left the family to take off with a con-man. Jess is overprotective. She hovers over Tegan to an extreme level. To protect her sister from heart break Jess conceals infrequent correspondence from their mother. Tegan, about to head off to college, goes behind Jess' back. Tegan finds the five postcards and poses as Jess to ask a reporter to find her mother. The night before Tegan is to leave on a cross country trip with the reporters Jess finds out about the scheme. The trip is life changing for Tegan and for Jess. Despite all of Jess' hesitation and skepticism, the trip turns out to be a good thing for both sisters.
