When Rosie learns that her birth mother--who she'd thought was dead--might still be alive, she's desperate to find her. Enter Rosie's best friend Mary, who offers to prostitute herself to help Rosie raise cash for a private investigator. Their ill-conceived plan quickly goes awry and culminates in a shocking--if too abrupt--ending that will have readers looking back for clues.
