From the back cover

On a freezing New Year's drive, a girl called Lily is ordered out of the family car after she hesitates over a math question her brother set as a trap. Her mother hands her a body camera and tells her to walk the 3,000 steps to the next rest stop as punishment, then drives away with Lily's father, Arthur, and her brother, Leo.

Counting alone in the cold without a coat, Lily falls and hurts her knee, then stumbles into the highway as lights bear down on her. She wakes weightless, able to follow her family to the rest stop and then to her grandparents' house, where no one can see or hear her. Her parents dismiss her absence as disobedience, while her grandmother keeps asking where Lily is and sets aside the sweet rice balls Lily loves most.
