Slightly superstitious and somewhat naive, 16-year-old Bailey wants nothing more than to prove she can be responsible on her own. When her godfather offers her a summer job as a cabin girl at Witch Lake Lodge in northern Manitoba, Bailey jumps at the chance. She has a difficult time getting into the rhythm of her job, but her cabin mate April, an older girl who works as a waitress, encourages her. Things eventually fall into place, and Bailey's confidence is restored. But then an incident occurs that requires Bailey to take over for another waitress, and things go from good to terrible in a heartbeat. April tremely protective of her rank in the workplace hierarchy es an about-face and attempts to sabotage Bailey at every turn. Focusing on bullying in the workplace, this boasts the quick-moving story line that has become the trademark of the Orca Currents books, and it should have reluctant readers cheering for the good-hearted Bailey.

A summer job cleaning cabins at her godfather's fishing resort starts out well for Bailey until workplace rivalry turns her into the target of bunkmate April's wrath. Pranks are one thing, but when it appears that April is up to something more sinister, Bailey must face the situation as the adult she aspires to be. Overt messages are presented engagingly for reluctant teen readers.
