Avery, who's adopted, is shocked when her former friend, Nora, commits suicide. To honor Nora's memory, Avery decides to search for her birth mother, just as also-adopted Nora had been doing. With the help of Nora's friend Brody, Avery explores her past and learns in the process about who she really is. Complicated feelings, messy relationships, and many lies make Avery's story absorbing.
