While spending the summer with relatives in Trinidad, Grace discovers an old photograph of a stranger with a birthmark just like her own. Grace is determined to discover his identity--and her own. Although Grace seems unfazed by her life-changing discoveries, readers will be intrigued by her quest. An evocative setting and a focused narrative make for a promising first novel.
