Book Synopsis

Nance, a young black girl, is trying to piece together the true story of her adoption, beginning with a newly-discovered photograph of herself as a baby. OD, her boyfriend, is struggling to cope with his crumbling family life and a sense that he’s going nowhere fast.

Nance is searching for her past. OD is searching for a future.

Engrossed in their own private struggles, can their relationship survive? It soon becomes clear that things aren’t always what they seem and that white lies can cover up some of the darkest secrets.
