Soon after Rosie's mum dies from Huntington's, an incurable hereditary disease, Rosie discovers she was swapped at birth. Seeking her biological parents, the eighteen-year-old travels from her English village to the Big Apple and beyond, uncovering still more family secrets that force her to make life-altering decisions. The melodramatic plot can be overwhelming, but dual narrators and multiple plot twists build suspense.
